    Simplify 35 x to 3x 5

    3x 5 - 15 = 65 x+12

    2. Simplify 65 x to 6x 5

    3x 5 - 15 = 6x 5 + 12

    3. Multiply both sides by 5

    3x-75=6x+60

    4. Subtract 3x from both sides

    -75=6x+60-3x

    5. Simplify 6x+60-3x to 3x+60

    -75=3x+60

    6. Subtract 60 from both sides

    -75-60=3x

    7. Simplify - 75-60 to - 135

    -135=3x

    8. Divide both sides by 3

    - 1353 = x

    9. Simplify 1353 to 45

    -45=x

    10. Switch sides

    x=-45
