Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
3(2x + -8) = 12
Reorder the terms:
3(-8 + 2x) = 12
(-8 * 3 + 2x * 3) = 12
(-24 + 6x) = 12
Solving
-24 + 6x = 12
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '24' to each side of the equation.
-24 + 24 + 6x = 12 + 24
Combine like terms: -24 + 24 = 0
0 + 6x = 12 + 24
6x = 12 + 24
Combine like terms: 12 + 24 = 36
6x = 36
Divide each side by '6'.
x = 6
Simplifying
x = 6
