Question

7x=8x+12
How do I solve this

Answer 1

x = -12

Explanation:

To solve this, you will need to get all of the variables on one side, and the 12 on the other. You will subtract 8x from both sides to get the equation -x = 12. You can then divide both sides by -1 to get the x alone, and thus you get x = -12.

Answer 2

x = -12

Explanation:

Get X all on one side

7x - 8x = 8x - 8x + 12

-x = 12

x = -12
