Answer:

x is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one: Add 12x to both sides-

8x-19+12x=-12x+61+12x

20x-19=61

Step 2: add 19 to both sides

20x -19+19=61+19

20x=80

Step 3: divide both sides by 20

20x/20=80/20

x=4

Solve for x. 7(x - 3) = 4(x + 5) x =1/11 x =1/3 x =41/11 x =41/3

marin [14]

To solve for the x, distribute first the numerical coefficients to the terms on the parentheses. This becomes,

7x - 21 = 4x + 20

Transpose all the terms with x and the constant on either sides of the equation,

   7x - 4x = 20 + 21

  3x = 41 ; x = 41 / 3

Thus, the answer is x = 41/3 which is fourth among the choices.
