Answer:

5

Explanation:

6x - 12 = 8 + 2x

6x - 2x {the reason it changed, is because to a negative sign is because it crossed the equal sign and also we have to bring together the like terms.}

6x - 2x = 8 + 12 { the reason is the same as the first }

So, 6x - 2x = 8 + 12

4x = 20

20/4x = 5

x = 5
