Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Group all x terms on the left side of the equation

1/3· x+4=-2/3·x+12

Add  2/3x to both sides:

1/3x+4+2/3·x=-2/3x+12+2/3·x

Group like terms:

1/3·x+2/3·x+4=-2/3·x+12+2/3·x

Combine the fractions:

1+2/3·x+4=-2/3·x+12+2/3·x

Combine the numerators:

3/3·x+4=-2/3·x+12+2/3·x

Find the greatest common factor of the numerator and denominator:

1·3/1·3·x+4=-2/3·x+12+2/3·x

Factor out and cancel the greatest common factor:

1x+4=-2/3·x+12+2/3·x

Simplify the left side:

x+4=-2/3·x+12+2/3·x

Group like terms:

x+4=-2/3·x+2/3·x+12

Combine the fractions:

x+4=-2+2/3·x+12

Combine the numerators:

x+4=0/3·x+12

Reduce the zero numerator:

x+4=0x+12

Simplify the arithmetic:

x+4=12

2. Group all constants on the right side of the equation

Subtract 4 from both sides:

x+4-4=12-4

Simplify the arithmetic:

x=12-4

Simplify the arithmetic:

x=8

Answer:

x=8

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3x +4= -2/3 +12

Subtract 4 from both sides: 1/3x + 4-4 = -2/3x + 12 -4

Simplify: 1/3x = 2/3x + 8

Add 2/3x to both sides: 1/3x + 2/3x = -2/3x + 8 + 2/3x

Simplify: x=8
