Let x + 1.5 be length of segment above left hand
Let 2x be length of segment below left hand
15 = x + 1.5 + 2x
15 = 3x + 1.5
15 - 1.5 = 3x
13.5 = 3x
13.5/3= 3x/3
4.5 = x
x = 4.5
This is the length above the left hand.
2x must be then 4.5*2 = 9 foot
This is the length below the left hand.
Checking
4.5 + 9 + 1.5 = 15 foot
Adding length below left hand & length of left hand to right hand:
9 + 1.5 = 10.5
The right hand is hence 10.5 foot far up the pole.

Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets do the brackets first,
6 × 2x = 12
6 × -11 = -66
------
Calculate the x constant:
12x - 3x = 9x
-------
Then the ones with no x:
-66 + 15 = -51
51 + 12 = 63
-------
Lastly, divide
63 ÷ 9 = 7
-------
Have a good day :)
