1. **State the problem:** Solve the equation for $t$ given by $$10 - 3t = 3t + 2.$$
2. **Write the formula and rules:** To solve for $t$, we want to isolate $t$ on one side of the equation. We can do this by adding or subtracting terms on both sides and then dividing if necessary.
3. **Step-by-step solution:**
Start with the equation:
$$10 - 3t = 3t + 2$$
Add $3t$ to both sides to move all $t$ terms to the right:
$$10 = 3t + 3t + 2$$
$$10 = 6t + 2$$
Subtract 2 from both sides to isolate the term with $t$:
$$10 - 2 = 6t$$
$$8 = 6t$$
Divide both sides by 6 to solve for $t$:
$$t = \frac{8}{6}$$
Simplify the fraction by dividing numerator and denominator by 2:
$$t = \frac{\cancel{8}^{4}}{\cancel{6}^{3}}$$
4. **Final answer:**
$$t = \frac{4}{3}$$
This means the value of $t$ that satisfies the equation is $\frac{4}{3}$.
