Answer:
x+4=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
The variable x in this case would be -12.
The answer is a=9 because 14 minus 5 equals 9.
Due to "order of operations" rules, you MUST do the multiplication -5(12x+8) first, eliminating the parentheses long the way:
8 - 60x - 40
Now combine the 8 and -40 and rewrite the entire answer in 2 (not 3) terms.

y^2 = 405/5
y^2 = 81
y = - 9 and y = 9
