$\"Subtraction$ $\"\"$

The equation is 16+t = $\"\"$ 9

Apply subtraction property of equality: Subtract 16 from each side.

t +16 $\"\"$ 16 = $\"\"$ 9 $\"\"$ 16

t + 0 = $\"\"$ 9 $\"\"$ 16 (Apply additive inverse property: 16 $\"\"$ 16 = 0)

t = $\"\"$ 25 (Apply additive identity property: a + 0 = a)

t = $\"\"$ 25 (Subtract: $\"\"$ 9 $\"\"$ 16= $\"\"$ 25) $\"\"$

Check:

To check the solution, substitute t = $\"\"$ 25 in original equation.

16+t = $\"\"$ 9 $\"\"$ 16+( $\"\"$ 25) = $\"\"$ 9

16 $\"\"$ 25 = $\"\"$ 9 (Product of two opposite signs is negative)

$\"\"$ 9 = $\"\"$ 9 (Subtract :16 $\"\"$ 25 = $\"\"$ 9)

The statement is true.

The value of t = $\"\"$ 25
