Answer: Combine like terms. (x=2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Using this expression : [tex]2x+6+1x=12[/tex]
We see that there are x's that must be combined first in order to solve for x.
Therefore, combining the x's will be our first step.
[tex]2x+1x+6=12[/tex]
[tex]3x+6=12[/tex]
-6. -6
[tex]3x = 6[/tex]
[tex]x=2[/tex]
That's it.
