Answer: - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the brackets

It will give: 2x - 1 = 5x + 8

Collect like terms: 2x - 5x = 1 + 8

- 3x = 9

Divide both sides by - 3

x = -3

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is get x by itself.

1/4(8x - 4) = 5x + 8 Distribute 1/4 to 8x and -4.

2x - 1 = 5x + 8 Subtract 5x on both sides.

-3x -1 = 8 Add -1 to both sides.

-3x = 9 Divide -3 on both sides.

x = -3

Let it be x

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{4}{10}=\dfrac{x}{12+x}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 4(12+x)=10x$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 48+4x=10x$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 10x-4x=48$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 6x=48$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{48}{6}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=8$
