Answer:

x = 6/5

x = 1.2

x = 1 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The answers above are all the same, but in different forms.

The steps to getting x:

1. subtract 12 from the parenthesis which leaves us with 5x = 6

2. Then we want to divide 5 from x which gives up our answer 5x/5 = 6/5

Remember whatever you do on one side it has to be done on the other, hence the equal sign
