Answer:

x = -16 / 11

Explanation:

Twelve Less Than A number: x - 12

Is The Same As: =

Twelve Times The Number: 12x

Increased By Four: + 4

x - 12 = 12x + 4

Subtract 12x from both sides

x − 12 − 12x = 12x + 4 − 12x

−11x − 12 = 4

Add 12 to both sides

−11x − 12 + 12 = 4 + 12

−11x = 16

Divide both sides by -11

−11x / -11 = 16 / -11

x = -16 / 11
