-12%28x-1%296%2A7+=+0.........multiply 6%2A7
-12%28x-1%2942+=+0.........multiply -12%2A42

-12%2A42%28x-1%29+=+0.........
-504%28x-1%29+=+0.........multiply each term of binomial x+-+1 by 504
-504x+%2B+504+=+0.........move -504x+ to the right
+504+=+504x.........divide both sides by 504
+504%2F504+=+504x%2F504.........
+1+=+x....or
x+=+1+
