Hey there!


\bold{s-12=20}

ADD by
\bold{12} on BOTH SIDES


\bold{s-12+12=20+12}

CANCEL out:
\bold{-12+12} because that gives you
\bold{0}

KEEP:
\bold{20+12} because it helps us solve for
\bold{s}


\bold{s =12+20}


\bold{32= 12+20}


\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Answer:32}}}\checkmark

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
