Simplify. Combine like terms.

7 - 9 = -2

4t - 2 = -6 + 6t

Isolate the t. Note the equal sign. Add 2 to both sides, and subtract 6t from both sides

4t (-6t) - 2 (+2) = -6 (+2) + 6t (-6t)

4t - 6t = -6 + 2

Simplify

-2t = - 4

Isolate the t, divide - 2 from both sides

-2t/-2 = -4/-2

t = -4/-2

t = 2

t = 2 is your answer


hope this helps
