jakfishman:

am I on the right track

LjTheBaller16:

??

jakfishman:

LjTheBaller16:

yup

supie:

are you solving for \(x\)?

jakfishman:

idek at this point

jakfishman:

I believe so but not for sure

supie:

Ok so the first thing I would do is distribute \(6(2x−11)+15=3x+12\) \((6)(2x)+(6)(−11)+15=3x+12\) \(12x+−66+15=3x+12\) Then combine like terms: \((12x)+(−66+15)=3x+12\) \(12x+−51=3x+12\) \(12x−51=3x+12\) Then \(-3x\) from both sides \(12x−51−3x=3x+12−3x\) \(9x−51=12\) Then we have to divide by \(9x\) to both sides because all we have left is \(9x\) \(\LARGE\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{69}{3}\) So then \(\frac{9x}{9}\) cancels so all you have left is \(\frac{69}{3}\) Simplify that, then you'll have your answer.
