An equation is shown below: 6(2x - 11) + 15 = 21

Write the steps you will use to solve the equation and explain each step.

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

6(2x−11)+15=21

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

6(2x−11)+15=21

(6)(2x)+(6)(−11)+15=21(Distribute)

12x+−66+15=21

(12x)+(−66+15)=21(Combine Like Terms)

12x+−51=21

12x−51=21

Step 2: Add 51 to both sides.

12x−51+51=21+51

12x=72

Step 3: Divide both sides by 12.

1; 35 is the ratio

step-by-step explanation:

1/800 is the right answer
