Drag the appropriate tiles in order to show the steps for solving the equation 2x+12=30
Step 1:
Step 2:
Step 3:
Step 4:
x+12 = 15
2x/2 = 42/2
x+12-12=15-12
2x + 12 - 12 = 30 - 12
2x = 18
x=21
2x = 41
2x/2 = 18/2
x = 9
2x + 12 + 12 = 30 + 12
2x/2 + 12 = 30/2
x=3
Step 1: Start with the given equation 2x + 12 = 30.
Step 2: Subtract 12 from both sides to isolate the variable: 2x + 12 - 12 = 30 - 12.
Step 3: Simplify both sides: 2x = 18.
Step 4: Divide both sides by 2 to solve for x: x = 9.
