Sure, let's solve the equation step-by-step.
Given the equation:
[tex]\[ t - 5 = 57 \][/tex]
We need to isolate the variable [tex]\( t \)[/tex]. To do this, we add 5 to both sides of the equation to cancel out the -5 on the left side. Here's how it works:
1. Start with the equation:
[tex]\[ t - 5 = 57 \][/tex]
2. Add 5 to both sides of the equation to isolate [tex]\( t \)[/tex]:
[tex]\[ t - 5 + 5 = 57 + 5 \][/tex]
3. Simplify both sides:
[tex]\[ t = 62 \][/tex]
So, the value of [tex]\( t \)[/tex] is [tex]\( \boxed{62} \)[/tex].
