Question

$$-30+12=xe+15$$

Solve for x

$x=-\frac{33}{e}\approx -12.140021559$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Add $-30$ and $12$ to get $-18$.

$$-18=xe+15$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$xe+15=-18$$

Subtract $15$ from both sides.

$$xe=-18-15$$

Subtract $15$ from $-18$ to get $-33$.

$$xe=-33$$

The equation is in standard form.

$$ex=-33$$

Divide both sides by $e$.

$$\frac{ex}{e}=-\frac{33}{e}$$

Dividing by $e$ undoes the multiplication by $e$.

$$x=-\frac{33}{e}$$
