\large\bf{\orange{ \implies}} \: \tt \: \: 4 \: ( - x \: + \: 4) \: = \: 12


\large\bf{\orange{ \implies}} \: \tt \: \: - 4x \: + \: 16 \: = \: 12


\large\bf{\orange{ \implies}} \: \tt \: \: - 4x \: = \: 12 \: - 16


\large\bf{\orange{ \implies}} \: \tt \: \: - 4x \: = \: - 4


\large\bf{\orange{ \implies}} \: \tt \: \:x \: = \: \frac{ \cancel{- 4} \: \: ^(1) }{ \cancel{- 4}}


\large\bf{\orange{ \implies}} \: \bf \: \:x \: = \: 1

Solve the equation


\\ \sf \longmapsto 4(-x+4)=12


\\ \sf \longmapsto -4x+16=12


\\ \sf \longmapsto -4x=12-16


\\ \sf \longmapsto -4x=-4


\\ \sf \longmapsto x=(-4)/(-4)


\\ \sf \longmapsto x=1
