Hey there!
7t - 3 = -59
ADD 3 to BOTH SIDES
7t - 3 + 3 = -59 + 3
CANCEL out: -3 + 3 because it give you 0
KEEP: -59 + 3 because it help solve for the t-value
NEW EQUATION: 7t = -59 + 3
SIMPLIFY IT!
7t = -56
DIVIDE 7 to BOTH SIDES
7t/7 = -56/7
CANCEL out: 7/7 because it give you 1
KEEP: -56/7 because it help solve for the t-value
NEW EQUATION: t = -56/7
SIMPLIFY IT!
t = -8
Therefore, your answer is: t = -8
Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
