Question

If 2x+5=8x then 12x=?

Answer 1

Hello

2x+5=8x

5=6x

x=5/6 

12(5/6)

x=10

Have a nice day

Answer 2

2x + 5 = 8x

subtract 2x from both sides

2x (-2x) + 5  = 8x (-2x)

5 = 6x
5/6 = 6x/6

x = 5/6

12x = ?

plug in x

12(5/6) = (12(5))/6

12(5) = 60

60/6 = 10

12x = 10


hope this helps
