Answer

$t = 4$

Work Step by Step

$9t-6-6t=6$ We begin by joining like terms together as shown below: $9t - 6t - 6 = 6$ Simplify to get: $3t - 6 = 6$ Next, we isolate the variable $t$ by adding $6$ to both sides of the equation as shown below: $3t - 6 + 6 = 6 + 6$ Simplify to get: $3t = 12$ Then, we divide through by the coefficient of the variable as shown below: $\frac{3}{3}t = \frac{12}{3}$ Simplifying we have: $t = 4$ Therefore, the equation has a possible solution at the point $t = 4$
