t=

Answer 1

t=2

Explanation:

14-6t=t

1. Add 6t to both sides (really just adding it to the side with only t and canceling it on the side with only 14)

14=6t+t

2. Add 6t+7

14=7t

3. Divide both sides by 7 to get t alone

14/7=2 7t/7=t

t=2

Answer 2

t=2

Explanation:

14-(6x2)=t

14-12=t

t=2
