I believe it is asking for x so I will be finding the value of x.
X = 4, work is shown below:
−2x=−3x+12−2x
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−2x=−3x+12−2x
−2x=−3x+12+−2x
−2x=(−3x+−2x)+(12)(Combine Like Terms)
−2x=−5x+12
−2x=−5x+12
Step 2: Add 5x to both sides.
−2x+<u>5x</u>=−5x+12+<u>5x</u>
3x=12
Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.
3x/3 =1 2/3
x=4
The answer you selected in that photo given, is correct. I can tell just by using common sense and by judging the other options second option (B) is looking the most clearest one to me.
