You can put this solution on YOUR website!
T+1=3T-5
T-3T=-5-1
-2T=-6
2T=6
T=6/2
T=3
PROOF
3+1=3*3-5
4=9-5
4=4

problem:t+1=3t-5
FOLLOW THESE RULES
1.BRING ALL UNKNOWNS TO ONE SIDE AND KNOWNS TO ANOTHER SIDE.
2. WHILE DOING THIS WHEN YOU CHANGE SIDES FROM LHS TO RHS OR RHS TO LHS,+ BECOMES - AND - BECOMES PLUS
HERE
1+5=3T-T
3.SIMPLIFY
6=2T
4.SEND COEFFICIENT OF UNKNOWN TO THE SIDE OF KNOWNS.WHILE DOING THIS * BECOMES /
AND / BECOMES *
6/2=T
5.SIMPLIFY
T=3
