Answer 2

@ajprincess

Answer 3

x + 6/ 6 = x + 9/7

Answer 4

\[\frac{x+6}{6}=\frac{x+9}{7}\]
\(7(x+6)=6(x+9)\)
\(7*x+7*6=6*x+6*9\)
\(7x+42=6x+54\)

Answer 5

can u solve for x @alainabbyboo22?

Answer 6

how do i solve for x ?

Answer 7

Follow the steps.
1.Subtract 6x both sides
2.Subtract 42 both sides

Answer 8

i'm still confused ):
can you set it up for me ? like what do i subtract 6 by and what do i subtract 42 by ?

Answer 9

7x+42=6x+54
Subtract 6x both sides
7x+42-6x=6x+54-6x
x+42=54
subtract 42 both sides
x+42-42=54-42
x=12
Is it clear?

Answer 10

yes ! now i see
