Question

2.5. Solving Equations Using Addition or Subtraction

Short answer

Solution of given equation is$t=23$$t=23$

Step-by-step solution

Step-1- Solving for value of t

$-13+t=10$

Adding \[13\]on both sides, we get

\[\begin{align}

& -13+t+13=10+13 \\

& t=10+13 \\

& t=23

\end{align}\]

\[t=23\]

Step-2-Verification of our solution

For checking our answer, substitute$t=23$ in given equation $-13+t=10$.

On substituting, we get

\[\begin{align}

& -13+t=10 \\

& -13+23=10 \\

& 10=10

\end{align}\]

Step-3- Conclusion

Here, as both sides above expression are equal, our answer is true.
