Answer:

x = 5

Explanation:

6x - 3 = 3x + 12

-3x -3x

_____________

3x - 3 = 12

+3 +3

_____________

3x = 15

15 divided by 3 = 5

x = 5

You can double check this by replacing x with (5)

If it is right both sides should equal the same

6(5) - 3 = 3(5) + 12

30 - 3 = 15 + 12

27 = 27

This would prove that x = 5
