Question

$$\frac{ 3x-18-2x }{ 6 } =3$$

Solve for x

$x=36$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply both sides by $6$.

$$3x-18-2x=3\times 6$$

Combine $3x$ and $-2x$ to get $x$.

$$x-18=3\times 6$$

Multiply $3$ and $6$ to get $18$.

$$x-18=18$$

Add $18$ to both sides.

$$x=18+18$$

Add $18$ and $18$ to get $36$.

$$x=36$$
