Answer:

X = 2 or X = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

We know either3x+12=18or3x+12=−18

3x+12=18(Possibility 1)

3x+12−12=18−12(Subtract 12 from both sides)

3x=6

3x

3

=

6

3

(Divide both sides by 3)

x=2

3x+12=−18(Possibility 2)

3x+12−12=−18−12(Subtract 12 from both sides)

3x=−30

3x

3

=

−30

3

(Divide both sides by 3)

x=−10

Answer:

x=2 or x=−10
