an equation is shown below: 6(2x - 11) + 15 = 21 write the steps you will use to solve the equation and explain each step.

6(2x - 11) + 15 = 21

First step use distributive property on the left side to remove the parenthesis, to do this multiply 6 by each term inside the parenthesis:

12x - 66 + 15 = 21

Second step, simplify the left side by combining the like terms:

12x - 51 = 21

Third step, add 51 to both sides of the equation:

12x = 72

Last step, divide both sides by 12:

x = 72/12

x = 6
