-12x < -12

Divide both sides by -12 and because you are dividing by a negative number you need to reverse the inequality sign.

The answer becomes x > 1

• What is the solution to 5x+ 20 = 7(x+2)?

o-na [289]

For this case we must find the solution of the following equation:

$5x + 20 = 7 (x + 2)$

Applying distributive property on the right side of the equation we have:

$5x + 20 = 7x + 14$

Subtracting 7x from both sides of the equation:

$5x-7x + 20 = 14\\-2x + 20 = 14$

Subtracting 20 from both sides of the equation:

$-2x = 14-20$

Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

$-2x = -6$

Dividing between -2 on both sides of the equation:

$x = \frac {-6} {- 2}\\x = 3$

Thus, the solution of the equation is $x = 3$

Answer:

$x = 3$
