Answer:

x = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

7 + 3x - 12x = 3x + 1

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Combine like terms: 7 - 9x = 3x + 1
  2. Add 9x to both sides: 7 = 12x + 1
  3. Subtract 1 on both sides: 6 = 12x
  4. Divide both sides by 12: 6/12 = x
  5. Simplify: 1/2 = x
  6. Rewrite: x = 1/2
  7. Evaluate: x = 0.5

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

7 + 3(0.5) - 12(0.5) = 3(0.5) + 1

7 + 1.5 - 6 = 1.5 + 1

8.5 - 6 = 2.5

2.5 = 2.5
