Find the value of t in the equation t + 5 + 3t = 1.

Solution:

Given, the equation is t + 5 + 3t = 1

We have to find the value of t.

Grouping of common terms,

t + 3t + 5 = 1

t + 3t = 1 - 5

By further calculation

4t = -4

t = -4/4

t = -1

Therefore, the value of t is -1.

Example:  Find the value of t in the equation t + 2 + 4t = 1.

Solution:

Given, the equation is t + 2 + 4t = 1

We have to find the value of t.

Grouping of common terms,

t + 4t + 2 = 1

t + 4t = 1 - 2

By further calculation

5t = -1

t = -1/5

Therefore, the value of t is -1/5.
