Question

What is the answer to 14 - 6t=t

Answer 1

Statement Problem: What is the answer to;

`14-6t=t`

Solution:

Add 6t to both sides of the equation;

`\begin{gathered} 14-6t+6t=t+6t \\ 14=7t \end{gathered}`

Divide both sides by 7;

`\begin{gathered} (14)/(7)=(7t)/(7) \\ t=2 \end{gathered}`

Answer 2

`14-6t=t`

Simplify the equation:

`14+-6t=t`

`-6t+14=t`

Subtract t from both sides:

`-6t+14-t=t-t`

`-7t+14=0`

Subtract 14 from both sides:

`-7t+14-14=0-14`

`-7t=-14`

Divide both sides by -7:

`(-7t)/(-7) =(-14)/(-7)`

`\fbox{t=2}`

Hope this helps!
