Question

solve the equation:

\\15(x+2)-30=12x\\

answer

example: \\(x=3\\); \\(x=5\\)

Explanation:

Expand the left side of the equation

$$ 15(x + 2) - 30 = 12x $$
$$ 15x + 30 - 30 = 12x $$

Simplify the equation

$$ 15x = 12x $$

Solve for x

$$ 15x - 12x = 0 $$
$$ 3x = 0 $$
$$ x = 0 $$

Answer:

Solve the equation:
\(15(x+2)-30=12x\)
