Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
2x + 3y + 12 = 0
Reorder the terms:
12 + 2x + 3y = 0
Solving
12 + 2x + 3y = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-12' to each side of the equation.
12 + 2x + -12 + 3y = 0 + -12
Reorder the terms:
12 + -12 + 2x + 3y = 0 + -12
Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
0 + 2x + 3y = 0 + -12
2x + 3y = 0 + -12
Combine like terms: 0 + -12 = -12
2x + 3y = -12
Add '-3y' to each side of the equation.
2x + 3y + -3y = -12 + -3y
Combine like terms: 3y + -3y = 0
2x + 0 = -12 + -3y
2x = -12 + -3y
Divide each side by '2'.
x = -6 + -1.5y
Simplifying
x = -6 + -1.5y
