Question

Solve 12 - 4x = 44. Find the value of X

Answer 1

answer:
x = -8

step by step
12 - 4x = 44
-4x = 44 - 12
-4x = 32
x = -8

Answer 2

x = -8

Explanation:

We have the expression 12 - 4x = 44 and are asked to find the value of x.

To solve this, we need to isolate x, or get it by itself.

12 - 4x = 44

Subtract 12 from both sides :

-4x = 32

Divide -4 from both sides :

x = -8
