Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem, you have to leave the x alone,

To do so, you have to add 84 on each side

12x = 4x + 96

Then, subtract 4x on each side,

8x = 96

Then divide each side by 8, so

x = 12

Hope it helps!!

Let me know if I'm wrong or you need help on anything else!!

Also, if you're okay with it, can you plz make be brainliest?

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 84 = 4x + 12

We want to move x to one side and all other values to the other side of the equal sign

Add 84 to both sides of the equation

12x - 84 + 84 = 4x + 12 + 84

Simplify

12x = 4x + 96

Subtract 4x from both sides

12x - 4x = 4x - 4x + 96

Simplify

8x = 96

Divide both sides by 8

8x /8 = 96/8

Simplify

x = 12

(13) The temperature on a cold winter day is 2 degrees below zero. In the night, the temperature drops an additional 14 degrees.
EastWind [94]
Well, in the first one, 2 degrees below zero is -2 degrees, and then it says that it dropped 14 degrees, which means it dropped -14 degrees, so to know the total amount it dropped you would just have to add -2 plus -14 which is -16 degrees, so your answer for the first question would be the last answer, -16 degrees.

For the second question, just know that whenever a negative number is BY ITSELF in parentheses, that means it is used like a positive number in the equation. So (-12) automatically becomes 12. Now, since the problem is asking for a SUM, (the answer to an ADDITION problem; when you add instead of subtract), you would turn that minus symbol to a plus symbol, and add normally to get your final answer; 30 + 12 = 42. To check if this is correct, just type in <span>30 – (–12) to a calculator and you'll get the same answer! :D
Hope this helps! :3</span>
