Answer 1

Answer: t=5

Solution: 2-16t=6(-3t+2)
2-16t=-18t+12
-16t+18t=12-2
2t = 10
T=5

Answer 2

t =5

Explanation:

2-16t=6(-3t+2)

Distribute

2-16t = -18t +12

Add 18t to each side

2-16t+18t = -18t+18t +12

2 +2t = 12

Subtract 2 from each side

2-2 +2t = 12-2

2t =10

Divide each side by 2

2t/2 =10/2

t =5
