Question

(t-5)=5(t-5)+8 I need the steps to solve also

Answer 1

Answer:

t = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$\tt (t-5)=5(t-5)+8$

1) Expand

$\tt t-5=5t-17$

2) Add 5 to both sides

$\tt t -5+5=5t-17+5$

$\tt t=5t-12$

3) Subtract 5t from both sides

$\tt t-5t=5t-12-5t$

$\tt -4t=-12$

4) Divide both sides by -4

$\tt \cfrac{-4t}{-4}=\cfrac{-12}{-4}$

$\tt t=3$

Hope it helps! :)
