_5_
\n" ); document.write( "t+5 = -6
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "\"5%2F%28t%2B5%29\" = -6
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by (t+5)
\n" ); document.write( "(t+5)*\"5%2F%28t%2B5%29\" = -6(t+5)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "cancel the denominator on the left, multiply what's inside the brackets
\n" ); document.write( "5 = -6t - 30
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "Add 6t to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "6t + 5 = -30
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 5 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( "6t = -30 - 5
\n" ); document.write( "6t = -35
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 6
\n" ); document.write( "t = \"%28-35%29%2F6\"
\n" ); document.write( "or
