a⋅(b-2)=3b

3(r+2s)=2t-4

a⋅(b-2)=3b

Question

$$3++2-\frac{2t+3}{3}=\frac{8}{3}$$

Solve for t

$t=2$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides of the equation by $3$.

$$9+6-\left(2t+3\right)=8$$

Add $9$ and $6$ to get $15$.

$$15-\left(2t+3\right)=8$$

To find the opposite of $2t+3$, find the opposite of each term.

$$15-2t-3=8$$

Subtract $3$ from $15$ to get $12$.

$$12-2t=8$$

Subtract $12$ from both sides.

$$-2t=8-12$$

Subtract $12$ from $8$ to get $-4$.

$$-2t=-4$$

Divide both sides by $-2$.

$$t=\frac{-4}{-2}$$

Divide $-4$ by $-2$ to get $2$.

$$t=2$$
