Answer:
x = -7/12 or -0.583.. repeating.
Explanation:
6x-5= -6(x+2)
___________ (distributive property)
(to group like terms)
6x-5 = -6x-12
___________ (addition poe) (add 6x on both sides to cancel -6 out)
+6x +6x
___________
12x-5 = -12
__________
+5 +5 (addition poe) (add 5 to both sides to cancel -5 out)
__________
12x = -7
__________
÷12 ÷12 (division poe) (divide both sides by 12 to get x)
x = -7/12
