Answer:

C

Explanation:

So if x is the number, then 4 times the number would be 4x and adding that to -8 would be 4x + (-8) and then 12 times the number would be 12x, so you have 4x + (-8) = 12.

Then, solve:


4x - 8 = 12x\\

subtract 4x from both sides


-8 = 8x

divide both sides by 8


-1 = x \\x = -1
