-10t = -10
Divide each side by -10
-10t ÷ -10 = -10 ÷ -10
t = 1
X - (-20) = 5
When you subtract a negative, change it to addition:
X + 20 = 5
Subtract 20 from both sides:
X = -15
The answer is 6x
You have to add 12 and 3 which is 15 then you have to do 15 minus 9 then it is 6 then you will put the x there because it had 2 x and 1y so 6x is the answer
