The Battle of Yorktown, also called the Siege of Yorktown, fought from October 6–20, 1781.[1] It is considered the last major land battle of the American Revolutionary War.[1] The Continental Army, led by General George Washington, won a decisive victory against the British Army, led by General Lord Charles Cornwallis.[1] Cornwallis was forced to surrender after being surrounded by Washington's army.[1]
The Americans were assisted by the French, led by the Comte de Rochambeau. The battle took place in Yorktown, Virginia, near the York River. After the French fleet defeated a British fleet, Cornwallis was cut off and had to surrender to the French and the Continental Army. Eventually, it led to the Treaty of Paris in 1783, two years later.

x + 6 + 2x = 15
x+2x+6= 15 ( combine like terms)
3x+6= 15
move +6 to the other side
sign changes from +6 to -6
3x+6-6= 15-6
3x= 15-6
3x= 9
divide both sides by 3 to get x by itself
3x/3= 9/3
Cross out 3 and 3 , divide by 3 and then becomes 1*1*x= x
x= 9/3
Answer: x= 3
