<h2><u>The solution to the expression is: No Solution</u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
PEMDAS
12 - (2x + 6) = - 4x + 10 + 2 (x - 8)
12 - 2x - 6 = - 4x + 10 + 2x - 16
-2x + 12 - 6 = - 4x + 2x + 10 - 16
Transfer like terms to each side, [x] on one side, and the numbers with it, [x], on the other.
<h2><u>- 2x + 6 = - 2x - 6</u></h2><h2>+ 2x -6 -6</h2><h2 /><h2>0 = -12</h2><h3><u>Since there is no x for the solution, there is no solution.</u></h3>
