Answer:

x=-2/7

Explanation:

you have to let x be on one side so you subtract -30x to each side.

16x-30x-12=30x-30x-8

-14x-12=-8

now you gotta add 12 to each sides to delete -12.

-14x-12+12=-8+12

-14x=4

divide -14/14x=14/4

-x=2/7

x=-2/7

hope this helps!

Answer:

-2/7

Explanation:

solve for x so -12+ 8 = 30x - 16x so -4 = 14x so x = -4/14, so x = -2/7
