In the equation #3*(5*t + 2) = 36#, what does t equal?
1 Answer
Explanation:
To solve for
#(color(red)(cancel(color(black)(3)))(5* t + 2))/color(red)(cancel(color(black)(3))) = 36/3#
The
#5 * t + 2 = 12#
#5t + 2 = 12#
Then we subtract 2 from each side.
#5t + color(red)(cancel(color(black)(2))) - color(red)(cancel(color(black)(2))) = 12 - 2#
#5t=10#
Then, isolate
#(color(red)(cancel(color(black)(5)))t)/color(red)(cancel(color(black)(5))) = 10/5#
#t = 2#
