Y = 12x - 5x - 2
first simplify the equation by subtracting like terms (in this case):
12x - 5x = 7x
y = 7x - 2
Since you are finding the x, you must isolate the x. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.(Note: because there is a equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other)
y = 7x - 2
y (+2) = 7x - 2 (+2)
y + 2 = 7x
(y + 2)/7 = 7x/7
x = (y + 2)/7
x = (y + 2)/7 is your answer
hope this helps

=-5 - 5z/2
Answer:
X= 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Since x= 2 you would plug it in 3.5 times 2 = 7
