3x-12=15x

First you subtract the x from both sides

-12=12x

Then you divide 12 by the x, in this case 12x

12 divided by 12 = -1

-1 is your answer

3x-12=15x

first subtract negitive 3x form both sides

-12=12x

then divide each side by 12 and your answer is

-1=x

the first thing u do in these problems is get all the x’s on one side. then solve for x

You want to get the ‘x’s’ together…therefore do this.

1. -12=15x-3x

turns into… -12 = 12x

now you want to get x isolated…divide.

2. -12/12 = 12x/12

turns into x=-1

hope this helps, you can use this for all the problems you have like these

subtract the 3x from both sides to get -12=12x. divide by 12 and get -1=x
