Solution :


t = (3)/(20)

Step-by-step explaination:


(1)/(3) t + (4)/(5) = (3)/(5) - t

1. Substract 1/5 from both sides


(1)/(3) t + (4)/(5) - (4)/(5) = (3)/(5) - t - (4)/(5)

2. Simplify


(1)/(3) t = - t - (1)/(5)

3. Add t to both sides


(1)/(3) t + t = - t - (1)/(5) + t

4. Simplify


4t = - (3)/(5)

5. Divide both sides by 4


(4t)/(4) = ( - (3)/(5) )/(4)

6. Simplify


t = - (3)/(2 0)

Solution :

=
t = - (3)/(20)
