find a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[t = \frac{ 1-a }{ 3 }\]

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

multiply both sides by " -3 " then add " 1 " to both sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats -3 times t?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jdoe0001

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

-3t

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but then its -2t = -a

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so plus 2!

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf t = \cfrac{1-a}{3}\\ \quad \\ \textit{multiplying both sides by }-3\\ -3t = -\cancel{3}\times \cfrac{1-a}{\cancel{3}}\implies -3t = -(1-a)\implies -3t = a-1\\ \quad \\ \textit{adding to both sides }1\\ -3t+1 = a\cancel{-1+1}\)
