Question

Solve for x Show your work

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this and show your work, you have to start of with the equation (3x - 6) = 30.

You then have to add 6 to both sides like this:

$(3x - 6) = 30 \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: + 6 \: \: \: \: \: + 6$

So then the 6 is cancelled out, and you are left with

3x = 36.

Now you just have to divide both sides by 3 like this:

$\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{36}{3}$

Which cancels 3 out, and you are left with

x = 12.
