Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x/3+6-2x=-6
(x/3) + 6 -2x = -6
Subtract 6 from both sides
(x/3) -2x = -12
No the problem is combining the two, dissimilar-looking, x terms, (x/3) and -2x.
Rewrite (x/3) as (1/3)x
(1/3)x - 2x = -12
I'll rewrite 2x as (6/3)x to make it easier to subtract the terms
(1/3)x - (6/3)x = -12
-(5/3)x = -12
Multiply both sides by 3
-5x = -36
Divide by -5
x = (36/5) or x = 7+(1/5)
