Answer: t=-20 and -20=t. *The answer must be have negative sign.*

Explanation:

multiplication property of equality is multiplying both sides of an equation by the same number does not change the equation.

multiply by 5 both sides of an equation.

5*3/5t=5(-12)

simplify by equation.

3t=-60

divide by 3 both sides of an equation.

3t/3=-60/3

simplify by equation.

60/3=20

20*3=60

60/20=3

3*20=60

t=-20

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!
