Howwww??????
Answer???

Answer 1

x=7

Explanation:

First, you need to expand the brackets.

8x-12=6x+2

Next, you need to get x on one side by subtracting 6x from both sides.

8x-12-6x=6x+2-6x (2x-12=2).

Now, add 12 to both sides of the equation

2x-12+12=2+12 (2x=14).

And finally, divide both sides by 2.

2x÷2=14÷2 (x=7)

Answer 2

8x - 12 = 6x + 2

8x - 12 + 12 = 6x + 2 + 12

8x = 6x + 14

8x - 6x = 6x + 14 - 6x

2x = 14

2x/2 = 14/2

X = 7
