Hi!

Our goal is to isolate x on one side by doing the same operation on both sides.

First let's use the distribution property.
-2 x 6 = -12
-2 x 3 = -6
-12x - 6 = -27 - 5x

Add 6 to both sides
-12x - 6 + 6 = -27 + 6 - 5x
-12x = -21 - 5x

Add 5x to both sides
-12x + 5x = -21 - 5x + 5x
-7x = -21

Divide by -7 on both sides
-7x/-7 = -21/-7
x = 3

The answer is x = 3

Hope this helps! :)

Art [367]
Home price is $245,000. There is no down payment mentioned. 
I understand 20/4 as amortized over 20 years and balloon payment after 4 years.

Total cost would be =  Balloon payment + Total monthly payment 

4 years x 12 months = 48 months
Balloon payment =       216,789.79 x 1 mo =   216,789.79
Total monthly payment = 1,727.11 x 47 mos =  81,174.17

Total cost = 216,789.79 + 81,174.17 = 297,963.96
