First Answer:

x = 12

First Step-by-step explanation:

12 + x = -3(4 - x)

12 + x = -12 + 3x

- x - x

—————————

12 = -12 + 2x

+ 12 + 12

—————————

24 = 2x

24/2 = 2x/2

12 = x

Second Answer:

No solution

Second Step-by-step explanation:

2(x - 1/2) = 8 + 2x

2x - 1 = 8 + 2x

+1 +1

—————————

2x = 9 + 2x

- 2x - 2x

—————————

0 = 9

^^ No solution

<h2>Answer:</h2>10.\text{ Option B is correct}

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Given the equation expressed as:

2x+5=8x

First, we need to calculate the value of "x" from the given expression.

Step 1: Given the equation 2x + 5 = 8x

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides:

\begin{gathered} 2x+5-5=8x-5 \\ 2x+\cancel{5}-\cancel{5}=8x-5 \\ 2x=8x-5 \end{gathered}

Step 3: Subtract 8x from both sides

\begin{gathered} 2x-8x=8x-8x-5 \\ -6x=\cancel{8x}-\cancel{8x}-5 \\ -6x=-5 \end{gathered}

Step 4: Divide both sides by -6

\begin{gathered} \frac{-6x}{-6}=\frac{-5}{-6} \\ x=\frac{5}{6} \end{gathered}

Step 5: Get the value of 12x. Substitute x = 5/6 into the expression to have:

\begin{gathered} 12x=12(\frac{5}{6}) \\ 12x=\cancel{12}^2(\frac{5}{\cancel{6}^1}) \\ 12x=2\times5 \\ 12x=10 \end{gathered}

Therefore the value of 12x is 10
