You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the mean is adding all the variables up and dividing by that many variables to get ur answer.
\n" ); document.write( "so theres 2 variables (x+1) and(12x) so we add them then divide by 2 to =6x
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28%28x%2B1%29%2B%2812x%29%29%2F2=6x\"$ multiply both sides by 2
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28x%2B1%29%2B%2812x%29=12x\"$ add
\n" ); document.write( " $\"13x%2B1=12x\"$ subtract 12x and 1 from each side
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=-1\"$ this is the only value \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
