Question

1\2(x-12)=4 what is this

Answer 1

1/2x=10

x=20

Explanation:

x=5 because 1/2x-6=4

Move the other side and divide 1/2 by 10. dividing by 1/2 is the same as multiplying by 2 so the answer is 20

Answer 2

x = 20

Explanation:

`\sf (1)/(2)*(x-12)=4\\\\Multipy \ the \ entire \ equation \ by 2\\\\ 2*(1)/(2)(x - 12) =2*4\\\\`

x - 12 = 8

Add 12 to both sides,

x = 8 + 12

`\sf \boxed{x = 20}`
