D. x = 6

1) Given that we have two lines cut by a transversal one, then we can state that

these angles are Corresponding ones, i.e. they are congruent angles

2) So we can write:

12x + 3= 11x +9 Subtract 3 from the both sides,

12x +3 -3 = 11x +9 -3

12x=11x +6 Subtract 11x from both sides

12x -11x = 11x -11x +6

x=6

3) So the value for x, is x =6
