Question 501457: 2(2t-3)=6(t+2)
Have solved to 4t-6-6t+12 but not sure of the next step. Algebra calculator shows answer to be t=-9 but I can't figure out how to get that answer. Can you show me the correct way to calculate this? I am getting 10t-6.
Thank you!

Answer by Ali-aithzaz(4) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2(2t-3) = 6(t+2)
(4t-6) = ( 6t+12)
4t-6-6t-12 = 0
-2t-18 = 0
-2t = 18
t = 18/(-2)
t = -9

2(2t-3)=6(t+2)
4t-6=6t+12
-2t=18 subtract 6t-6 from each side.
t=-9 divide each side by -2.
