Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The left side would be (3x - 12)
The right side would be (-4x+2)

In an equation, 3x - 12 = -4x+2

Combine all the letters on the left and plain numbers on the right,

3x + 4x = 12 + 2

Note: When you transfer to the other side of the equal sign, the number will change its sign.

Simplify the 3x + 4x = 12 + 2,

                     7x = 14

                      x=\frac{14}{7}

                      x = 2

Answer:

  • x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

\large\begin{gathered} \sf{Simplify \ using \ the \ distributive \ property:} \\ \sf{3(x-4)=2(-2x+1)} \\  \ \sf{3x-12=-4x+2} \\ \rm{Move \ 12 \ to \ the \ right, \ with \ the \ opposite \ sign} \\ \ \sf{ 3x=-4x+2+12} \\ \rm{Move \ -4x \ to \ the \ left, \ wth \ the \ opposite \ sign.} \\  \sf{3x+4x=14} \\  \rm{Collect \ the \ like \ terms} \\ \sf{7x=14} \\  \rm{Divide \ the \ entire \ equation \ by 7.} \\ \sf{\dfrac{7x}{7}=\dfrac{14}{7} \\ \sf{x=2}  \ \bigstar \end{gathered}

Done!!
