Solve for X:3x+6=12 3x + 6 = 12 3x+6=12
Step-by-step solution:
1. Start with the equation: 3x+6=12 3x + 6 = 12 3x+6=12
2. Subtract 6 from both sides: 3x+6−6=12−6 3x + 6 - 6 = 12 - 6 3x+6−6=12−6, which simplifies to 3x=6 3x = 6 3x=6
3. Divide both sides by 3 to solve for x: x=63 x = \frac{6}{3} x=36
4. Simplify the division: x=2 x = 2 x=2
