Q8 of 80 Page 45

Solve the following equation:

3 (t – 3) = 5 (2t – 1)

Given equation: 3 (t – 3) = 5 (2t – 1)

3t – 9 = 10t – 5 (Removing brackets)


3t – 10t = -5 + 9 (Transposing 10t to LHS and 9 to RHS)


-7t = 4


t = (Transposing -7 to RHS)


t =


The solution of 3 (t – 3) = 5 (2t – 1) is t = .
