Question

2x + 12 = -2(4-2x) X=10 X=-10 X=-5 X=5

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{x = 10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$= > 2x + 12 = - 2(4 - 2x) \\ \\ = > 2x + 12 = (( - 2) \times 4) - (( - 2) \times 2x) \\ \\ = > 2x + 12 = - 8 - ( - 4x) \\ \\ = > 2x + 12 = - 8 + 4x \\ \\ = > 2x - 4x + 12 = - 8 \\ \\ = > - 2x + 12 = - 8 \\ \\ = > - 2x = - 8 - 12 \\ \\ = > \cancel{-} 2x = \cancel{- }20 \\ \\ = > 2x = 20 \\ \\ = > x = \frac{20}{2} \\ \\ = > x = 10$

Answer 2

The first one is x=10
