Answer:
[See Below]
Explanation:
✦ Combine like terms by adding:
✧ 6x + 6x = 12x
✦ Rewrite the equation:
✧ 12x + 2 < 14
✦ Subtract 2 on each side:
✧ 2 - 2 = Cancels Out
✧ 14 - 2 = 12
✦ Rewrite once more:
✧ 12x < 12
✦ Divide by 12 on each side:
✧ 12 / 12 = Cancels Out
✧ 12x / 12 = 1
✦ So x = 1
✦ The simplified version of the equation would be x < 1 because
- (12x) x 1 = 12x
