    Answer:x=-3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    first you want to have the variables in one side so subtract the 10x from both sides. and it will give you.

    12x-9=10x-15 to 2x-9=-15

    Now you want to leave the nine to other side in order to make the equation legible. 2x=-6

    . Finally you divide both sides by 2 in order to have x by itself.

    2x/2=-6/2

    the two cancels out and its left with x=-3

    Answer: x = - 3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    12x - 9 = 10x - 15

    Add 9 to each side

    12x = 10x - 6

    Subtract 10x from each side

    2x = - 6

    Divide by 2

    x = - 3
