If 3t - 7 = 5t, then 6t = <br> A. 21 <br> B. -7 <br> C. -21<br> D. -42
podryga [215]

Answer:

C. -21 is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for t. Isolate the variable t in the first equation, then use the number gotten to solve the second equation.

3t - 7 = 5t

First, subtract 3t from both sides

3t (-3t) - 7 = 5t (-3t)

-7 = 5t - 3t

-7 = 2t

Isolate the variable (t). Divide 2 from both sides

(-7)/2 = (2t)/2

t = -7/2

t = -3.5

Plug in -3.5 for t in the second equation

6(t) =

6(-3.5) =

6(-3.5) = -21

C. -21 is your answer
