Bags of clementines have 12 each. For a party, Sal, Trisha, and Joe each brought bags of clementines. Altogether, there were 180 clementines. Sal brought 4 bags and Joe brought 6. Write the equation to determine how many bags Trisha brought, t .(2 points)
The equation to determine how many bags Trisha brought is:
12t = 180 - (4*12 + 6*12)
Simplifying this equation:
12t = 180 - 48 - 72
12t = 60
t = 5
So, Trisha brought 5 bags of clementines.
