3t−18=4(−3− 43 t)
can someone help me pls

Hey there! :)

3t - 18 = 4(-3 - 43t)

Let's start on the right side of the equal sign by multiplying "4" with everything inside of the parenthesis. Keep in mind that a negative times a negative is a positive & a negative times a positive is a negative.

Let's put this all together:

3t - 18 = -12 - 172t

Now, we need to isolate "t." We can do this by adding 18 to both sides along with adding "172t" to both sides.

3t - 18 + 18 + 172t = -12 - 172t + 172t + 18

Simplify.

3t + 172t = -12 + 18

Simplify - add like terms!

Let's put this all together:

175t = 6

Divide both sides by 175.

175t ÷ 175 = 6 ÷ 175

Simplify.

Hope this helped! :)
