Question

An equation is shown below: 6(2x – 11) + 15 = 3x + 12 Part A: Write the steps you will use to solve the equation, and explain each step. (6 points) Part B: What value of x makes the equation true? (4 points)

Answer 1

1.) you would distribute the 6---- 12x-66+15
2.) you would add like terms---- 12x-51=3x+12
3.) you would subtract 3x from each side of the equal sign---- 9x-51=12
4.) you would add 51 on each side of the equal sign----9x=63
5.) you would divide both sides of the equal sign by 9 giving you you answer---------                           x=7

Answer 2

Answer x=7
