Hello!

Answer:


\Large \boxed{\sf x = -6}

Explanation:

→ We want to solve this equation:


\sf -12x+ 20 = -10x +32

Subtract 20 from both sides:


\sf -12x+ 20 -20= -10x +32-20

Simplify both sides:


\sf -12x= -10x+ 12

Add 10x to both sides:


\sf -12x+10x= -10x+ 12+10x

Simplify both sides:


\sf -2x= 12

Divide both sides by -2:


\sf (-2x)/(-2) = (12)/(-2)

Simplify both sides:


\boxed{\sf x = -6}

Conclusion:

The solution of the equation 12x + 20 = -10x + 32 is -6.
