So I looked it up on another math helper app called ( Socratic )and this is what popped up on my screen Simplifying

16 = 17 + -1t

Solving

16 = 17 + -1t

Solving for variable 't'.

Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add 't' to each side of the equation.

16 + t = 17 + -1t + t

Combine like terms: -1t + t = 0

16 + t = 17 + 0

16 + t = 17

Add '-16' to each side of the equation.

16 + -16 + t = 17 + -16

Combine like terms: 16 + -16 = 0

0 + t = 17 + -16

t = 17 + -16

Combine like terms: 17 + -16 = 1

t = 1

Simplifying

t = 1

So I’m pretty sure that’s the answer:) if not I’m truly sorry.
