Homework Help: Pre-Algebra

Posted by Stephanie on Wednesday, November 19, 2008 at 9:50pm.

13 - t = -t + 7
(13 - t) - 13 = (-t +7) -13
-t = -t - 6
-t + t = (-t - 6) + t
0 = -6

This makes no sense to me..
What is the answer to the problem
13 - t = -t + 7

      -t = -t -6
      0=-6
      Thats the answer and you put no answer. That's just how some are.
