Question

Solve: 3x-12 = 18-2x

Answer 1

Simplifying

3x + -12 = 18 + -2x

Reorder the terms:

-12 + 3x = 18 + -2x

Solving

-12 + 3x = 18 + -2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '2x' to each side of the equation.

-12 + 3x + 2x = 18 + -2x + 2x

Combine like terms: 3x + 2x = 5x

-12 + 5x = 18 + -2x + 2x

Combine like terms: -2x + 2x = 0

-12 + 5x = 18 + 0

-12 + 5x = 18

Add '12' to each side of the equation.

-12 + 12 + 5x = 18 + 12

Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0

0 + 5x = 18 + 12

5x = 18 + 12

Combine like terms: 18 + 12 = 30

5x = 30

Divide each side by '5'.

x = 6

Simplifying

x = 6
