Solve for t 9+4t=12-4t

$9 + 4 t = 12 - 4 t$

Step 1

Move all terms containing $t$ to the left side of the equation.

Add $4 t$ to both sides of the equation.

$9 + 4 t + 4 t = 12$

Add $4 t$ and $4 t$ .

$9 + 8 t = 12$

Step 2

Move all terms not containing $t$ to the right side of the equation.

Subtract $9$ from both sides of the equation.

$8 t = 12 - 9$

Subtract $9$ from $12$ .

$8 t = 3$

Step 3

Divide each term in $8 t = 3$ by $8$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $8 t = 3$ by $8$ .

$\frac{8 t}{8} = \frac{3}{8}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $8$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{8 t}{8} = \frac{3}{8}$

Divide $t$ by $1$ .

$t = \frac{3}{8}$

Step 4

The result can be shown in multiple forms.

Exact Form:

$t = \frac{3}{8}$

Decimal Form:

$t = 0.375$
