Answer:

X = 6

Explanation:

I hope you can understand it;

- 3x + 12 + x = 2x - 12

2x + 12 = 2x -12

2x - 2x = - 12 - 12

-4x = -24

x = 24/4

x = 6

Answer:

x=6

Explanation:

1) Expand the equation to -2x+12=2x-12

2) Subtract 12 from both sides which gives you -2x=2x-24

3) Simplify, which makes it -4x=-24

4) Divide by 4, which gives you 6.
