Solve 12-0.6x=0.6left(x+10right)

$$12-0.6x = 0.6 \left( x+10 \right)$$

Solve for x

$$x=5$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Use the distributive property to multiply 0.6 by x+10.

$$12-0.6x=0.6x+6$$

Subtract 0.6x from both sides.

$$12-0.6x-0.6x=6$$

Combine -0.6x and -0.6x to get -1.2x.

$$12-1.2x=6$$

Subtract 12 from both sides.

$$-1.2x=6-12$$

Subtract 12 from 6 to get -6.

$$-1.2x=-6$$

Divide both sides by -1.2.

$$x=\frac{-6}{-1.2}$$

Expand \frac{-6}{-1.2} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$x=\frac{-60}{-12}$$

Divide -60 by -12 to get 5.

$$x=5$$
