x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

collect like terms

6x+4x= -18-12

Answer:

X = -15

Step-by-step explanation:

6X +12 = 4X -18

Subtract 4X from both sides

2X +12 = -18

Subtract 12 from both sides

2X = -30

Divide both sides by 2

X = -15

So basically just have the unknown on one side and normal numbers on the other. Make sure you do the same thing on both sides.
