Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x + 1}{3} = \frac{x - 6}{2} \\ \\ 2(x + 1) = 3(x - 6) \\ \\ 2x + 2 = 3x - 18 \\ \\ 3x - 2x = 18 + 2 \\ \\ x = 20$

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{x + 1}{3} = \frac{x - 6}{2}$

$2 \times x + 1 = 3 \times x - 6$

$2x + 2 = 3x - 18$

$2x - 3x = - 18 - 2$

$- x = - 20$

$x = 2$
