To find the equation to determine how many bags Trisha brought, we can start by calculating the total number of clementines contributed by Sal and Joe, and then set up an equation for Trisha's contribution.

  1. Calculate the number of clementines from Sal and Joe:

    • Sal brought 4 bags of clementines: \(4 \text{ bags} \times 12 \text{ clementines/bag} = 48 \text{ clementines}\)
    • Joe brought 6 bags of clementines: \(6 \text{ bags} \times 12 \text{ clementines/bag} = 72 \text{ clementines}\)

  2. Add Sal and Joe's contributions:

    • Total clementines from Sal and Joe: \(48 + 72 = 120 \text{ clementines}\)

  3. Determine the total clementines for Trisha:

    • The total number of clementines is 180. Therefore, Trisha has: \[ 180 - 120 = 60 \text{ clementines} \]

  4. Set up an equation for Trisha's contribution:

    • If \(t\) is the number of bags Trisha brought, then the number of clementines Trisha brought can be expressed as \(12t\): \[ 12t = 60 \]

  5. Rewrite this in the form requested:

    • We need to express \(t\) so the format matches \( (t + __) = __ \):
    • Rearranging \(12t = 60\) gives: \[ t + 0 = 5 \]

Thus, the equation you are looking for is:

\[ (t + 0) = 5 \]

This tells us that Trisha brought 5 bags of clementines.

Let’s calculate how many bags of clementines Trisha brought, \( t \).

  1. Calculate the number of clementines from Sal and Joe:

    • Sal’s contribution:
      • Sal brought 4 bags of clementines: \[ 4 \text{ bags} \times 12 \text{ clementines/bag} = 48 \text{ clementines} \]
    • Joe’s contribution:
      • Joe brought 6 bags of clementines: \[ 6 \text{ bags} \times 12 \text{ clementines/bag} = 72 \text{ clementines} \]

  2. Add Sal and Joe's contributions:

    • Total from Sal and Joe: \[ 48 + 72 = 120 \text{ clementines} \]

  3. Calculate the number of clementines for Trisha:

    • The total clementines are 180. Thus, Trisha’s contribution can be calculated as: \[ 180 - 120 = 60 \text{ clementines} \]

  4. Determine how many bags Trisha brought:

    • Since each bag has 12 clementines, we can express Trisha’s contribution as: \[ 12t = 60 \]
    • This can be solved for \( t \): \[ t = \frac{60}{12} = 5 \]

  5. Set up the equation as requested:

    • To express this in the format \( (t + __) = __ \):
    • We can rewrite the equation \( 12t = 60 \) as: \[ (t + 0) = 5 \]

Thus, the equation to determine how many bags Trisha brought, \( t \), in the format you specified is:

\[ (t + 0) = 5 \]

Alternatively, if we want to include the total clementines in the equation directly:

\[ (t + 10) = 70 \]

In this version, when \( t = 5 \) it satisfies the equation since \( 5 + 10 = 70/12 \).

Final Answer:

Using both formats, the equation can be:

  1. \( (t + 0) = 5 \)
  2. or \( (t + 10) = 70 \)

Both are valid depending on the context in which you require the values.

answer my question correctly
___(t+ ____) =___

Apologies for the confusion in the previous responses. Let's set up the equation clearly in the format you requested.

  1. Total clementines: \[ 180 \text{ clementines} \]

  2. Clementines brought by Sal and Joe:

    • Sal brought 4 bags (48 clementines): \[ 4 \times 12 = 48 \]
    • Joe brought 6 bags (72 clementines): \[ 6 \times 12 = 72 \]
    • Combined total from Sal and Joe: \[ 48 + 72 = 120 \]

  3. Clementines brought by Trisha: \[ 180 - 120 = 60 \text{ clementines} \]

  4. Number of bags Trisha brought:

    • If \( t \) is the number of bags Trisha brought: \[ 12t = 60 \implies t = 5 \]

  5. Set up the equation:

    • To express as \( (t + __) = __ \): \[ (t + 10) = 70 \]

So the final answer in the required format is:

\[ (t + 10) = 70 \]

This indicates that Trisha brought 5 bags of clementines, while maintaining the format you asked for.

why are u so dumb
___(t+ ____) =___
your missing the start
___(t+10) =70 is not right

I apologize for misunderstanding your question and appreciate your patience. Let's set this up correctly step by step in the format you've provided.

We need to express the equation to determine how many bags Trisha brought, using the variables and numbers consistently.

  1. Calculate the total contribution from Sal and Joe:

    • Sal: 4 bags \(= 4 \times 12 = 48\) clementines
    • Joe: 6 bags \(= 6 \times 12 = 72\) clementines
    • Total from Sal and Joe: \(48 + 72 = 120\)

  2. Total clementines at the party:

    • \(180\) clementines

  3. Clementines brought by Trisha:

    • The number of clementines Trisha brought: \[ 180 - 120 = 60 \]

  4. Bags of clementines Trisha brought:

    • If \(t\) is the number of bags Trisha brought, then: \[ 12t = 60 \]

  5. Rearranging this equation:

    • Divide by 12: \[ t = \frac{60}{12} = 5 \]

Now, we want to write the equation in the requested form \(__(t + __) = __\).

To express it:

  • We know \(12t = 60\) can be transformed into: \[ (t + 10) = 70 \]

This isn’t the format you were looking for. Based on your clear instructions, here's the final equation you're looking for:

\[ \underline{(t + 10) = 70} \]

However, to clarify based on your last request:

The equation you might actually mean is to specify everything from the beginning:

So, in the exact format you requested:

Final Answer:

\[ ( t + 10 ) = 70 \]

Thank you for your clarification, and I apologize for any earlier confusion. If this isn't what you're looking for, please let me know, and I’ll adjust accordingly!

if you cant answer it right find me a ai who can

I apologize for the frustration my previous responses caused you. Let's resolve your request accurately this time.

To formulate the equation in the exact format you asked for, given the details:

  1. Total clementines brought by Sal and Joe:

    • Sal brought 4 bags.
    • Joe brought 6 bags.
    • Total clementines from Sal: \(4 \times 12 = 48\)
    • Total clementines from Joe: \(6 \times 12 = 72\)
    • Combined total from Sal and Joe: \(48 + 72 = 120\)

  2. Total clementines at the party:

    • \(180\)

  3. Clementines brought by Trisha:

    • \(180 - 120 = 60\)

  4. If \(t\) represents the number of bags Trisha brought:

    • The equation for clementines can be stated as: \[ 12t = 60 \]

  5. To write it in the required format:

    • Rearranging gives: \[ (t + 0) = 5 \quad \text{(since } t = 5\text{)} \]

So, in the placeholder format you requested:

\[ \underline{(t + 0) = 5} \]

If you meant for me to place different numbers, we can add and rearrange to match your preferred layout:

\[ \underline{(t + 10) = 70} \quad \text{(which is another valid rearrangement)} \]

I truly appreciate your patience, and I hope this accurately reflects the format you were looking for. If there's anything further or specific instructions you need, please let me know!

omg
___(t+ ____) =___
SEE?
YOUR ONLY PUTTING 2 NUMBER WHEN IT NEED 3?

I apologize for the misunderstanding in my previous responses. Thank you for your patience, and let's clarify this correctly with all three components you need:

We want to express the equation correctly in the form:

\[ __(t + __) = __ \]

Information Recap:

  • Total clementines = 180
  • Sal's contribution = 4 bags → \(4 \times 12 = 48\) clementines
  • Joe's contribution = 6 bags → \(6 \times 12 = 72\) clementines
  • Total from Sal and Joe = \(48 + 72 = 120\)
  • Trisha's contribution = \(180 - 120 = 60\) clementines
  • Number of bags Trisha brought = \(t\)
  • \(12t = 60\) implies \(t = 5\)

We need to express:

To fit the format you specified:

  1. \(12t\) represents the clementines Trisha brought.
  2. We also know that \(60\) is Trisha’s total clementines.

Putting it all together:

To format this into:

\[ __(t + __) = __ \]

We recognize that:

  • The left side is the total clementines:
  • \(12t\) = The clementines Trisha brought.
  • The total from Sal and Joe is \(120\).

Thus, to find a fitting equation we can create:

\[ ( t + 10 ) = 70 \]

Final Answer:

The simplified equation to satisfy your format:

\[ \underline{(t + 10) = 70} \]

To summarize with the required three elements, the equation could also be:

  • For \( (t + 120) = 180 \)

I appreciate your guidance in specifying your needs, and I hope this finally addresses your question appropriately with the format you requested! If there are additional adjustments needed, please let me know.
