To solve the equation $19t - 47 = 7t - 15$, first subtract $7t$ from both sides to get $12t - 47 = -15$. Then add $47$ to both sides to get $12t = 32$. Finally, divide both sides by $12$ to find $t = \frac{32}{12} = \frac{8}{3}$.

Solve the Equation 19t−47=7t−1519 t - 47 = 7 t - 1519t−47=7t−15

Solve the Equation $19 t - 47 = 7 t - 15$
