First, cancel out your X values to get one x on a side. To do this subtract the x that is least in value. X is smaller than 5x, so you have to subtract it.
5x-x= 4x,
Now your new equation is 4x= -12.
Divide both sides by 4.
Answer is X= -3
2+4r. It is this because as it says, two more. That can be translated into 2+. When it says 4 times a number r that means that it is 4r. Combine the two and you get your expression. Hope this helps!
