Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define
11x - 12 = 16 + 12x
Step 2: Solve for x
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Isolate x terms: -12 = 16 + x
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Isolate x: -28 = x
- Rewrite: x = -28
Answer:
[tex]x = - 28[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Subtract 11x from both sides.
[tex] - 12 = 16 + 12x - 11x[/tex]
2) Simplify 16 + 12x - 11x to 16 + x.
[tex] - 12 = 16 + x[/tex]
3) Subtract 16 from both sides.
[tex] - 12 - 16 = x[/tex]
4) Simplify -12 -16 to -28.
[tex] - 28 = x[/tex]
5) Switch sides.
[tex]x = - 28[/tex]
so, therefor, the answer is x = -28.
