Answer:
Zero
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplifying
12x + 1 = 3(4x + 1) + -2
Reorder the terms:
1 + 12x = 3(4x + 1) + -2
Reorder the terms:
1 + 12x = 3(1 + 4x) + -2
1 + 12x = (1 * 3 + 4x * 3) + -2
1 + 12x = (3 + 12x) + -2
Reorder the terms:
1 + 12x = 3 + -2 + 12x
Combine like terms: 3 + -2 = 1
1 + 12x = 1 + 12x
Add '-1' to each side of the equation.
1 + -1 + 12x = 1 + -1 + 12x
Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
0 + 12x = 1 + -1 + 12x
12x = 1 + -1 + 12x
Combine like terms: 1 + -1 = 0
12x = 0 + 12x
12x = 12x
Add '-12x' to each side of the equation.
12x + -12x = 12x + -12x
Combine like terms: 12x + -12x = 0
0 = 12x + -12x
Combine like terms: 12x + -12x = 0
0 = 0
Solving
0 = 0
