x-3\times 2=3x+12
Multiply both sides of the equation by 3.
x-6=3x+12
Multiply -3 and 2 to get -6.
x-6-3x=12
Subtract 3x from both sides.
-2x-6=12
Combine x and -3x to get -2x.
-2x=12+6
Add 6 to both sides.
-2x=18
Add 12 and 6 to get 18.
x=\frac{18}{-2}
Divide both sides by -2.
x=-9
Divide 18 by -2 to get -9.
