How do you solve #3t + 6= 9#?

Answer 1

Kennedy Adams

#t = 1#

First, move the #6# to the other side by subtracting #-6# on both sides

#t+6color(blue)(-6) = 9color(blue)(-6)#

# 3t = 3 #

Then isolate the #t#

#(3 t)/3 = 3/3 #

#t = 1#

To solve the equation 3t + 6 = 9, you would first subtract 6 from both sides to isolate the term with the variable:

3t + 6 - 6 = 9 - 6

This simplifies to:

3t = 3

Then, you divide both sides by 3 to solve for t:

3t / 3 = 3 / 3

This simplifies to:

t = 1
