If i'm not wrong,i think the answer is:

30％=0.3
X=0.3+12=12.3

Since we're trying to find X, what is X? X is the whole. I'm using the "Part = Percent x Whole" formula (Whole = Part ÷ Percent) to find the answer. 12 ÷ 0.3 (30% in decimal form) = 40. And we can do the opposite to see if it's right, 40 x 0.3 = 12.

Hope this helps,

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The graph is shown in the Figure below

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

In this exercise, we have an equation. On the left side we have a straight line with slope $m=4$ and there is no any y-intercept. On the right side, on the other had, we also have a straight line, but the slope here is $m=-4$ . Therefore, by plotting these two straight lines, we have that the solution is the origin, that is, the point $(0, 0)$ .
