Since each bag contains 12 clementines, the number of clementines in Sal's bags is 4 * 12 = 48.
Similarly, the number of clementines in Joe's bags is 6 * 12 = 72.
The total number of clementines brought by Sal and Joe is 48 + 72 = 120.

To determine how many bags Trisha brought, we can subtract the total number of clementines brought by Sal and Joe from the total number of clementines at the party:
t + 120 = 180.

Therefore, the equation to determine the number of bags Trisha brought is t + 120 = 180.
