Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
To eliminate the fractions in the equation multiply all term on both sides by the lowest common multiple of 2 and 3, that is 6
3x + 18 = 4x + 6 ← equation with no fractions
Subtract 4x from both sides
- x + 18 = 6 ( subtract 18 from both sides )
- x = - 12 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = 12 → d
