Answer:

1. x=27

2. x=3

Explanation:

the first one

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

x−7=20

Step 1: Add 7 to both sides.

x−7+7=20+7

the second one

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3x+6=12x−21

Step 1: Subtract 12x from both sides.

3x+6−12x=12x−21−12x

−9x+6=−21

Step 2: Subtract 6 from both sides.

−9x+6−6=−21−6

−9x=−27

Step 3: Divide both sides by -9.

−9x/−9=−27/−9
