Answer:
X = [tex]\frac{-4}{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
3(x−4)=12x
(3)(x)+(3)(−4)=12x(Distribute)
3x+−12=12x
3x−12=12x
Step 2: Subtract 12x from both sides.
3x−12−12x=12x−12x
−9x−12=0
Step 3: Add 12 to both sides.
−9x−12+12=0+12
−9x=12
Step 4: Divide both sides by -9
[tex]\frac{-9x}{-9} =\frac{12}{9}[/tex]
X [tex]=\frac{-4}{3}[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]=\frac{-4}{3}[/tex]
