Answer:

x = 48

Explanation:

5x + 12 = 6x - 36 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

- x + 12 = - 36 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

- x = - 48 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

x = 48

Explanation:

______________________

5x + 12 = 6x - 36

5x + 12 - 6x = - 36

- x = - 36 - 12

- x = - 48

Now change the sign of both side of the equation...

x = - ( - 48)

x = 48...
