Question

can someone please help me with this , thanks

Answer 1

Answer:

x=18

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both sides of the equation.

1/2x-7=1/3(x-12)

1/2x-7=1/3x-4

Subtract 1/3x from both sides.

1/6x-7=-4

Add 7 to both sides.

1/6x=3

Multiply both sides by 6.

x=18

<3

Answer 2

Answer:

$x = 18$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{2}x - 7 = \frac{1}{3}(x-12)$

$\frac{1}{2}x - 7 = \frac{1}{3}x - \frac{12}{3}$

$\frac{1}{2}x - 7 = \frac{1}{3}x-4$

$-\frac{1}{3}x$    $-\frac{1}{3}x$

$\frac{1}{6}x -7 = -4$

$6(\frac{1}{6}x - 7 = -4)$

$x - 42 = -24$

  $+ 42$      $+ 42$

$x = 18$

Hope that helps!
