Question

Determine which integer in the solution set will make the equation true.

t − 72 = −12
S: {−84, −60, 6, 60}

60
6
−60
−84

Answer 1

60

Explanation:

Adding
`72` to both sides yields
`t=72-12=60`.

Answer 2

`\sf \: a) \: 60`

Explanation:

Now we have to,

→ find the required value of t.

The equation is,

→ t - 72 = -12

Then the value of t will be,

→ t - 72 = -12

→ t = -12 + 72

→ [ t = 60 ]

Hence, the value of t is 60.
