Um... I beleive its A due to 2x times 3x with an exponet of 2 would make 6x with the exponet of 2 then you would add 5
Ok? Where’s the rest of the question.
Janes weight = x
Twelve pounds less than twice janes weight is 270 pounds
12 less than 2x is 270
2x -12 = 270 (add 12 to each side)
2x = 270 + 12
2x = 282 (divide 2 from each side)
x = 282/2
x = 141
The answer is 141 pounds
