Okay, so the three x right? It means 3x=y+12. So 30-12 is? 18, 18/3 is 6, so: 12+36=30.

Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation 12+3x=30, we need to calculate the value of x:

\(12+3x=30\), subtract 12 in both sides

\(12+3x-12=30-12\)

\(3x=18\), divide both sides in 3

\(\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{18}{3}\)

\(x=6\)

Now to see if this statement is true we have to replace in  12+3x=30 with x=6,

\(12+3x=30\\12+3.6=30\\12+18=30\\30=30\)

Then x=6 makes the sentence true.
