I believe the answer is 3.
If you would like me to show my work please reply saying so.
Sorry if I'm wrong, but I hope this helps.

4(3x - 6) +15 = 27
Distributive Property
12x + -24 + 15 = 27
Add the two constants (numbers without variables)
12x + -9 = 27
Because 9 is negative, add 9 to both sides.
12x = 36
Divide both sides by the coefficient (number with x)
x = 3

The solution of the algebraic equation having variable x with highest power one is 3.

How to solve algebraic equation?

Algebraic expression are the equation, which consist the variables, coefficients of variables and constants. The algebraic expression are used represent the general problem in the mathematical way to solve them.

To solve the algebraic expression we first isolate the variable terms and then simplify the equation to find the values of variable.

The given algebraic equation in the problem is,

[tex]4(3x-6)+15=27[/tex]

Open the brackets using the distributive property as,

[tex]12x-24+15=27\\12x-9=27[/tex]

Add number 9 both side of the equation,

[tex]12x=27+9\\12x=36\\[/tex]

Divide the equation with 12 as,

[tex]x=\dfrac{36}{12}\\x=3[/tex]

Hence, the solution of the algebraic equation having variable x with highest power one is 3.
