Answer:

12

Explanation:

Simplifying

18x + -6y = 12

Solving

18x + -6y = 12

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '6y' to each side of the equation.

18x + -6y + 6y = 12 + 6y

Combine like terms: -6y + 6y = 0

18x + 0 = 12 + 6y

18x = 12 + 6y

Divide each side by '18'.

x = 0.6666666667 + 0.3333333333y

Simplifying

x = 0.6666666667 + 0.3333333333y
