x+2/6 -11-x/2 = 2x-14/12
Answers
Simplifying
2(6 + -2x) + 3x = 4 + 2(5 + x)
(6 * 2 + -2x * 2) + 3x = 4 + 2(5 + x)
(12 + -4x) + 3x = 4 + 2(5 + x)
Combine like terms: -4x + 3x = -1x
12 + -1x = 4 + 2(5 + x)
12 + -1x = 4 + (5 * 2 + x * 2)
12 + -1x = 4 + (10 + 2x)
Combine like terms: 4 + 10 = 14
12 + -1x = 14 + 2x
Solving
12 + -1x = 14 + 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 + -1x + -2x = 14 + 2x + -2x
Combine like terms: -1x + -2x = -3x
12 + -3x = 14 + 2x + -2x
Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0
12 + -3x = 14 + 0
12 + -3x = 14
Add '-12' to each side of the equation.
12 + -12 + -3x = 14 + -12
Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
0 + -3x = 14 + -12
-3x = 14 + -12
Combine like terms: 14 + -12 = 2
-3x = 2
Divide each side by '-3'.
