How to solve 6t - 9 = 3t + 45

1. Factor the equation (x + 2)(x + 3) = 0. 2. Set each factor equal to zero: x + 2 = 0 and x + 3 = 0. 3. Solve for x: x = -2 and x = -3.

Question

$$6t-9=3t+45$$

Solve for t

$t=18$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract $3t$ from both sides.

$$6t-9-3t=45$$

Combine $6t$ and $-3t$ to get $3t$.

$$3t-9=45$$

Add $9$ to both sides.

$$3t=45+9$$

Add $45$ and $9$ to get $54$.

$$3t=54$$

Divide both sides by $3$.

$$t=\frac{54}{3}$$

Divide $54$ by $3$ to get $18$.

$$t=18$$
