t=- 12
To solve an equation, we should first gather all of the variable terms on one side of the equation and all of the constant terms on the other side using the Properties of Equality.
1/b* a = a/b
LHS-2=RHS-2
LHS-t/4=RHS-t/4
a/b=a * 4/b * 4
a/b=a * 3/b * 3
Subtract fractions
Subtract term
LHS * 12=RHS* 12
The solution to the equation is t=- 12.
