Solve the equation. 2 + |t+ 6| = 12

t = 4 or t = -16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2+|t+6|=12

|t+6|+2=12

Step 1: Add -2 to both sides.

|t+6|+2+−2=12+−2

|t+6|=10

Step 2: Solve Absolute Value.

|t+6|=10

We know eithert+6=10 or t+6=−10

t+6=10(Possibility 1)

t+6−6=10−6(Subtract 6 from both sides)

t=4

t+6=−10(Possibility 2)

t+6−6=−10−6(Subtract 6 from both sides)

t=−16

step-by-step explanation:

ok so im not 100% sure but you would start by adding 5.1t and 1.9t beacuse they have the same variable. that is 7t.   then add -3.6 + 1.2 which is -2.4

so then keep that as -2.4 + 7t. i apologize if this is incorrect. best luck on your test < 3
