yoi have to add the variables so 2x +4x+12x=18x and concombine like terms so 3 +6+18=27 so you have to put tbat together 18x+27=477 then you have to get x alone so you have to subtract 27 in both sides 27-27=0 then 477-27=450 then you have to do the oppsite of multiply so you have to divide 18x/18x and 450/18x 18÷18 is 1 so you just have to put x and then divide 450÷18=25 so x=25.

Answer:

x= 25

Explanation:

2x + 3 + 4x + 6 + 12x + 18 = 477

FIRST combine like terms

take all "x"

2+4+12= 18x

take all whole numbers

3+6+18= 27

18x+27= 477

now solve for x

-27 on both sides

18x= 450

÷18 on both sides

x= 25
