Answer:

  • First u have to take -7 to the other side to make it +7 which will make it 4x=-2x+12+7
  • And then take -2x to the other side to make 4x+2x=12+7
  • which makes it 6x=19
  • then solve for x
  • both divided by 6
  • 6x/6=19/6
  • cancel both 6a
  • then x =ans?

Explanation:

4x-7=-2x+12

Add 2x

6x-7=12

Add 7

6x=19

Divide 6

x = 19/6

19/6 = 3 1/6

x = 3 1/6
