Answer: The required value of t is -4.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the value of t from the following linear equation :

3.5(t+6)=7~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

To find the value of t from the given equation, first we should take 3.5 on the right-hand side and then 6 to the right-hand side.

The solution of equation (i) is as follows :

$3.5(t+6)=7\\\\\Rightarrow t+6=(7)/(3.5)\\\\\Rightarrow t+6=2\\\\\Rightarrow t=2-6\\\\\Rightarrow t=-4.$

Thus, the required value of t is -4.
