Question
Solve the equation
t=−79
Alternative Form
t=−1.2˙85714˙
Evaluate
3(t−3)=5(2t×1)
Remove the parentheses
3(t−3)=5×2t×1
Multiply the terms
More Steps

Evaluate
5×2t×1
Rewrite the expression
5×2t
Multiply the terms
10t
3(t−3)=10t
Expand the expression
More Steps

Evaluate
3(t−3)
Apply the distributive property
3t−3×3
Multiply the numbers
3t−9
3t−9=10t
Move the variable to the left side
3t−9−10t=0
Subtract the terms
More Steps

Evaluate
3t−10t
Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients
(3−10)t
Subtract the numbers
−7t
−7t−9=0
Move the constant to the right side
−7t=0+9
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−7t=9
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
7t=−9
Divide both sides
77t=7−9
Divide the numbers
t=7−9
Solution
t=−79
