I feel like D is wrong

AZ:

Same thing we did last time, Maxine!

AZ:

We need to bring the any number with `x` to one side, and all the other numbers to the other side of the equal sign.

AZ:

We have -12 + 5x = 2x + 6 Let's take 12 to the other side. Do we add or subtract 12 on both sides?

Maxine:

add?

AZ:

Good! And then what do you get?

Maxine:

18

AZ:

Now we have 5x = 2x + 18 How do we get the 2x to the other side?

AZ:

Do we add or subtract 2x on both sides?

Maxine:

subtract

AZ:

Good good! And what do you get?

Maxine:

3x

AZ:

So now we have 3x = 18 What does x equal to?

Maxine:

6

AZ:

And there you have your final answer!
