You can put this solution on YOUR website! 37=85-t
Since t is on the right-hand side of the equation, switch the sides so it is on the left-hand side of the equation.
85-t=37
Since 85 does not contain the variable to solve for, move it to the right-hand side of the equation by subtracting 85 from both sides.
-t=-85+37
Add 37 to -85 to get -48.
-t=-48
Multiply each term in the equation by -1.
-t*-1=-48*-1
Multiply -t by -1 to get t.
t=-48*-1
Multiply -48 by -1 to get 48.
Answer: t=48
