Question

(58-x)-(x)=12 in one variable​

Answer 1

x = 23

Explanation:

Step 1: Write out equation

(58 - x) - (x) = 12

Step 2: Distribute negative

58 - x - x = 12

Step 3: Combine like terms

58 - 2x = 12

Step 4: Subtract 58 on both sides

-2x = -46

Step 5: Isolate x (divide both sides by -2)

x = 23
