To solve the equation, we first need to combine like terms. The given expression seems to be:
3x + 10x + 4x + 12x + 18 = 0
Now, let’s add the coefficients of x:
- 3 + 10 + 4 + 12 = 29
This means we have:
29x + 18 = 0
Next, we isolate x by subtracting 18 from both sides:
29x = -18
Now, we divide both sides by 29 to solve for x:
x = -18/29
Therefore, the solution to the equation is:
x = -18/29
