A. 1.5
B. 3
C. -1
D. 6

Answer 1

Beyoncé for the equation is -1

Answer 2

C. t = -1

Explanation:

t + 5 + 3t = 1 //Step 1: Combine like terms

4t +5 = 1 //Step 2: Get t by itself (on one side). Subtract 5 on both sides.

4t = 1 - 5

4t = -4 //Step 3: Solve for t. Divide both sides by 4

t = -4 / 4

t = -1
