What is the value of x that makes the given equation true?

​ 4x−3=−12x+13​



a) ​ x=−3​

b) x = 0

c) x = 1

d) x = 16

Answer 1

4x - 3 = -12x + 13
4x + 12z = 13 + 3
16x = 16
x = 16/16
x = 1 <=== this would make the equation true

Answer 2

4x − 3= −12x + 13​

4x + 12x = 13 + 3

16x = 16

x = 1

Hence, the answer is C.
