<----- Start

<---- Since and are like terms, you can add them together. This now looks like adding fractions. I trust that you know how to find the lowest common denominator and know what to change the numerators to.

<---- Found the LCD and fixed the numerators so that they will be equal to the original 1/2 and 1/3

<----- added the fractions

<---- multiply both sides by the reciprocal of the function

<---- This is actually the answer. You may also convert that to decimal if you want. It'd be 9.6.
