Answer:

$x = 14$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, the following equation is generated given the available information:

$\frac{(x + 7) + x)}{x + 7} = \frac{12 + 8}{12}$

$\frac{2x + 7}{x + 7} = \frac{20}{12}$

$\frac{2x + 7}{x + 7} = \frac{5}{3}$

Cross multiply

$3(2x + 7) = 5(x + 7)$

$6x + 21 = 5x + 35$

Collect like terms

$6x - 5x = - 21 + 35$

$x = - 21 + 35$

$x = 14$

Solve equation for 5x-14=8x+4

My answer-

Simplifying 5x + -14 = 8x + 4

Reorder the terms: -14 + 5x = 8x + 4 Reorder the terms: -14 + 5x = 4 + 8x

Solving -14 + 5x = 4 + 8x Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-8x' to each side of the equation. -14 + 5x + -8x = 4 + 8x + -8x

Combine like terms: 5x + -8x = -3x -14 + -3x = 4 + 8x + -8x

Combine like terms: 8x + -8x = 0 -14 + -3x = 4 + 0 -14 + -3x = 4 Add '14' to

each side of the equation. -14 + 14 + -3x = 4 + 14

Combine like terms: -14 + 14 = 0 0 + -3x = 4 + 14 -3x = 4 + 14

Combine like terms: 4 + 14 = 18 -3x = 18 

Divide each side by '-3'. x = -6

Simplifying x = -6
