a=-x+5t
Combine 5x and -6x to get -x.
6x+a=5x+5t
Use the distributive property to multiply 5 by x+t.
5x+5t=6x+a
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
5t=6x+a-5x
Subtract 5x from both sides.
5t=x+a
Combine 6x and -5x to get x.
\frac{5t}{5}=\frac{x+a}{5}
Divide both sides by 5.
t=\frac{x+a}{5}
Dividing by 5 undoes the multiplication by 5.
