Answer: x =
(5)/(a)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, we will isolate the x variable.

Given:

10ax + 11ax = 12ax + 45

Subtract 12ax from both sides of the equation:

10ax + 11ax - 12ax = 45

Combine like terms:

9ax = 45

Divide both sides of the equation by 9a:

x =
(45)/(9a)

Reduce (or simplify) the fraction:

x =
(5)/(a)
