Answer:

x = -1/2 or -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (4 - x) = 12x - 3

Distribute the -2

-8 + 2x = 12x -3

Add 3 to both sides

-5 + 2x = 12x

Subtract 2x from both sides

-5 = 10x

Divide both sides by 10

x = -1/2 or -0.5

-2 (4 - x) = 12x – 3

-8+2x=12x-3

+8            +8

2x=12x+5

-12x  -12x

-10x=5

/-10  /-10

= -1/2

Solving linear systems of substitution
never [62]
Example: 2x+2y=8 and 3y+2x=6
Okay so u first want to put on of the equations into a y= form. So let's use 3y+2x=6. Subtract 2x from both sides. 3y=6-2x divide by 3. Y= 6-2/3x or y= -2/3x + 6. Now just plug this new equation in for Y since "y=" into the other equation.
2x + 2(-2/3x + 6) = 8.
Then you would distribute the 2 into the parenthesis and simplify to solve for x.
After you solve for x, plug x into one of the original equations to find y.
