Question

2x+12=6x-12
show all work

Answer 1

First off we want to combine "like-terms"
1. Subtract 6x , so it will look like this: 2x-6x+12=-12
2. Subtract the -12 from the first side so it looks like 2x-6x=-12-12
3. Combine like terms. So: -3x=-24 . The negatives will cancel out when dividing 24/3.

The final answer is 8 after dividing. Hope this helped!
