Usually, people do not write in the problem description DC = 6x + x.
Such writing is a of .
And when a tutor detects an error in the visitor's writing,
the duty of the tutor is to inform the visitor about the error,
BUT DO NOT SOLVE incorrectly posed problem, as @MathLover1 does.
It is an elementary rule of the safety precautions.
