Answer: t = 1

Explanation:

We're asked to solve the following equation :


\implies\bf{2t+1=3}

In order to solve it, I'll isolate t.

So first, I'm going to subtract 1 from both sides :


\implies\bf{2t=2}

T is not on its own, because we still need to divide both sides by 2 :


\implies\bf{t=1}

Therefore, t = 1. Choice a) is the right one.
