Please help :(

Solve for x

8x+12=4x−16

8x + 12 = 4 x - 16

Subtract 12 from both sides

8x = 4x - 28

Subtract 4x from both sides

4x = -28

Divide both sides by 4 to get rid of the coefficient so we know what x alone is equal to, instead of what we have currently which shows what 4 x's equals

x = -28/4

x = -7

1x = - 7

One x is equal to - 7 units.

Hope this helps,
