Question

write the value of x in 5x-12=2x-6​

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-16

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-2x=-6-12

3x=-18

x = -18/3

x = -6

Answer 2

Answer:

=> x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$5x-12=2x-6$

To find:- The value of the expression

We have to use the method of transposing,

It is the method used for the transfer or shifts of any term from one side to another:

As we have,

=> $5x-12=2x-6$

Transposing $2x$ to $LHS$ and 12 to $RHS$, we get

=> $5x -2x = -6 + 12$

Combining the like terms:

=> $3x = 6$

Divide both sides by $3$, we get

=> $x=2$

Hence, the required solution is 2.
