Answer: Combine like terms. (x=2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using this expression : [tex]2x+6+1x=12[/tex]

We see that there are x's that must be combined first in order to solve for x.

Therefore, combining the x's will be our first step.

[tex]2x+1x+6=12[/tex]

[tex]3x+6=12[/tex]

       -6.    -6

[tex]3x = 6[/tex]

[tex]x=2[/tex]

That's it.
