Answer:

So, first you multiply 6 times x. You'll get 6x, then you multiply 6x3. You get 18. If we reverse the equation we get 21-18=3, 6x1/2=3. Therefore x=1/2

Answer:

x=1/2

Explanation:

6(x+3)=21

Step 1: Distribute 6 into (x+3)

6(x) = 6x

6(3) = 18

We're left with 6x+18=21

Step 2: Subtract 18 from 21

6x=21-18

6x=3

Step 3: Divide each side by 6 to isolate x

x=3/6

Step 4: Simplify

x=1/2
