To isolate the variable on one side of the equation, Marianne needs to first add 6 to both sides of the equation:
9X - 6 + 6 = 12 + 6.
This simplifies to:
9X = 18.
Next, Marianne needs to divide both sides of the equation by 9, to solve for X:
(9X) / 9 = 18 / 9.
This simplifies to:
X = 2.
Therefore, each side needs to be divided by 9.
9X - 6 + 6 = 12 + 6.
This simplifies to:
9X = 18.
Next, Marianne needs to divide both sides of the equation by 9, to solve for X:
(9X) / 9 = 18 / 9.
This simplifies to:
X = 2.
Therefore, each side needs to be divided by 9.
