Question

(7t - 2) - (-3t + 1) = -3(1 - 3t)

What is t?

I've done all the other problems. This one just has me stumped.

Answer 1

First, distribute the negative and the -3

7t - 2 + 3t - 1 = -3 + 9t

Second, add like terms

10t - 3 = -3 + 9t

Third, move like terms to the same side

t -3 = -3

t = 0
