Question

What is the value of t in the equation 3(2t + 5) = 5t + 25? (4 points)

5
6
10
35

Answer 1

3 ( 2t + 5 ) = 5 t + 25

3 * 2 t + 3 * 5 = 5 t + 25

6 t + 15 = 5 t + 25

6t - 5t = 25 - 15

t = 10

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

The solution of the equation is t=10

C is correct option

Explanation:

Given:
`3(2t+5)=5t+25`

We need to solve for t

`3(2t+5)=5t+25` (Distributive property)

Distribute 3 over the bracket (2t+5)

`6t+15=5t+25`

Move variable term left side and constant right side

`6t-5t=25-15`

Combine like term

`t=10`

Hence, The solution of the equation is t=10
