Answer: I hope this helps! :)
x = -3
- rearrange terms: 6x+12/3 = 5-9/2
- subtract the numbers: 6x+12/3 = -4/2
- eliinate fractions denominators: 3 times 6x+12/3 = 3(-2)
- simplify fractions: 6x+12/3 = -2
- eliinate fractions denominators: 3 times 6x+12/3 = 3(-2)
- multiplt the numbers: 6x + 12 = -6
- subtract 12 from both sides of the equation: 6x + 12-12 = -6-12
- simplify: 6x = -18
- divide both sides of the equation by the same factor: 6x/6 = -18/6
- x = -3
Answer: x=-3
