Question

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST FAST!! Will Give Brainliest if you show all the steps. 8x - 6 / 2 = x + 12

Answer 1

Answer: 15/7 2 1/7

Step-by-step explanation: First divide 8x-3=x+12 Then add 3 to both sides.

8x=x+15 Subtract x from both sides. 7x=15 Then divide again so 7/7 and 15/7. If you simplify it become 2 1/7

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 15/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Reduce the fraction with 2

8x - 3 = x + 12

Move variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

8x - x - 3 = 12

Move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign

8x - x = 12 + 3

collect like terms

7x = 12 + 3

Add the numbers

7x = 15

Divide both sides of the equation by 7

Solution: x = 15/7

Alternate form

x = 2 1/7, x = 2.142857
