-3x_{2}+9x-36=0
Combine x_{2} and -4x_{2} to get -3x_{2}.
9x-36=3x_{2}
Add 3x_{2} to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
9x=3x_{2}+36
Add 36 to both sides.
\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{3x_{2}+36}{9}
Divide both sides by 9.
x=\frac{3x_{2}+36}{9}
Dividing by 9 undoes the multiplication by 9.
x=\frac{x_{2}}{3}+4
Divide 36+3x_{2} by 9.
-3x_{2}+9x-36=0
Combine x_{2} and -4x_{2} to get -3x_{2}.
-3x_{2}-36=-9x
Subtract 9x from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-3x_{2}=-9x+36
Add 36 to both sides.
-3x_{2}=36-9x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-3x_{2}}{-3}=\frac{36-9x}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
x_{2}=\frac{36-9x}{-3}
Dividing by -3 undoes the multiplication by -3.
x_{2}=3x-12
Divide -9x+36 by -3.
