6x-5 = -6(x+2)

I keep getting an incorrect fraction answer please help

x = -7/12 or -0.583.. repeating.

Step-by-step explanation:

6x-5= -6(x+2)

(distributive property)

(to group like terms)

6x-5 = -6x-12

(addition poe) (add 6x on both sides to cancel -6 out)

+6x +6x

12x-5 = -12

+5 +5 (addition poe) (add 5 to both sides to cancel -5 out)

12x = -7

÷12 ÷12 (division poe) (divide both sides by 12 to get x)

x = -7/12
