t= -8
Move -100 over to the right, and 12t to the left. Your problem becomes -12t=-4+100
-12t=96
divide both sides by -12, thus, t = -8!
Hope that made sense...

-100=12t-4
-100+4=12t (when a function is shifted to the other side, the quation will be the opposite. therefore, -4 shift to the other side will be +4)
-96/12=t (12t = 12 x t. therefore, when 12 shifted to the other side will be divided)
-8=t

-100=12t-4
12t = -100 + 4 = -96
t = -96/12 = 8

-100=-12t-4
-100+4=-12t-4+4
-96=-12t
t=8
Check:
-100=12(-8)-4
-100=-96-4
-100=-100
