Answer

t = 6

Step-by-step explanation

We are asked to solve the equation

3t - 6 = 12

Add 6 to both sides

3t - 6 + 6 = 12 + 6

3t = 18

Divide both sides by 3

(3t/3) = (18/3)

t = 6

Hope this Helps!!!

Simplifying

3t + -6 = 12

Reorder the terms:

-6 + 3t = 12

Solving

-6 + 3t = 12

Solving for variable 't'.

Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '6' to each side of the equation.

-6 + 6 + 3t = 12 + 6

Combine like terms: -6 + 6 = 0

0 + 3t = 12 + 6

3t = 12 + 6

Combine like terms: 12 + 6 = 18

3t = 18

Divide each side by '3'.

t = 6

Simplifying

t = 6
