Answer 1

Hence the value of 2x and 3x are 18 and 27 respectively.

Explanation:

Given the expression 2x - 3 = 3x - 12. We need to get the value of x first;

2x - 3x = -12 + 3

-x = -9

x = 9

Get 2x;

2x = 2(9)

2x = 18

Get 3x;

3x = 3(9)

3x = 27

Hence the value of 2x and 3x are 18 and 27 respectively.
