Find the value of xx that satisfies the equation 2x+12=6x142x+12=6x-14.

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The equation is x+12=6x14x +12 =6x -14 . We are looking for the value of xx that makes this equation true

STEP 2

First, we need to isolate xx terms on one side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 2x2x from both sides of the equation.
2x+122x=6x142x2x +12 -2x =6x -14 -2x

STEP 3

implify the equation.
12=x1412 =x -14

STEP 4

Next, we need to isolate xx by adding 1414 to both sides of the equation.
12+14=4x14+1412 +14 =4x -14 +14

STEP 5

implify the equation.
26=4x26 =4x

STEP 6

Finally, we need to solve for xx by dividing both sides of the equation by 44.
x=264x = \frac{26}{4}

STEP 7

implify the equation to find the value of xx.
x=6.5x =6.5The value of xx that makes the equation true is 6.56.5.
