a⋅(b-2)=3b

Question

$$3 ( t - 3 ) = ( 2 t + 1 )$$

Solve for t

$t=10$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply $3$ by $t-3$.

$$3t-9=2t+1$$

Subtract $2t$ from both sides.

$$3t-9-2t=1$$

Combine $3t$ and $-2t$ to get $t$.

$$t-9=1$$

Add $9$ to both sides.

$$t=1+9$$

Add $1$ and $9$ to get $10$.

$$t=10$$
