3t%2B8%282t-6%29=2%2B14t Start with the given equation

3t%2B16t-48=2%2B14t Distribute


19t-48=2%2B14t Combine like terms on the left side


19t=2%2B14t%2B48Add 48 to both sides


19t-14t=2%2B48 Subtract 14t from both sides


5t=2%2B48 Combine like terms on the left side


5t=50 Combine like terms on the right side


t=%2850%29%2F%285%29 Divide both sides by 5 to isolate t



t=10 Divide
