If you are solving for x then here’s how:
(3x2 + 4x - 12) = (x + 5)
Remove the x on the left by remove one x from both of the sides.
(3x2 + 3x - 12) = 5
Add 12 onto both sides
(3x2 + 3x) = 17
Multiply
(6 + 3x) = 17
Take away 6 from both sides
3x = 11
Divide by 3 on both sides
x = 3.666 recurring
3a + b = 54
Substitute b for 9
3a + 9 = 54
Subtract 9 to both sides
3a = 45
Divide 3 to both sides
a = 15
Answer: 66

Step-by-step explanation:
The last step is a little wrong. Lemme show you:
x(x + 2) + (x + 2)
Imagine there is an invisible '1' infront of (x + 2) like this:
= x(x + 2) + 1(x + 2)
Now we can combine the like terms together:
= (x + 1)(x + 2)
This is the correct factorization.
