8(4x - 1) - 12x = 11(2x-6)
Distribute
8(4x-1) -12x=11(2x-6)
32x-8- 12x =11 (2x-6)
Combine like terms
32x-8-12x=11(2x-6)
20x-8 =11 (2x-6)
Distribute
20x -8 =22x-66
Add 8 to both sides of the equation
20x-8+8=22x-66 + 8
Simplify
20x =22x -58

Subtract 22x from both sides of the equation
20x -22x =22x-58 -22x
Simplify
-2x=-58

Divide both sides of the equation by the same term
-2x/-2=-58/-2
Simplify
X=29
Solution
X=29
