OK, SO 4x = 12x + 32.
SO 4x -12x-12x-12x+32 (subtract 12x from each side to get x on one side)
SO -8x = 32 (simplify)
SO -1 (-8x) = 32 (-1) (multiply each side by -1)
SO 8x -32 (simplify)
SO 8x / 8 = -32/8 (divide each side by eight (8) to get ""X"" by itself)
SO x= -4
SO x = -4.
Does that help?
Hope that helps!
