answer: [tex]x = 11[/tex]
work:
[tex]3(x+4)=5(x-2)[/tex] | distribute 3 and 5 into the parentheses.
[tex]3x + 12 = 5x - 10[/tex] | subtract 5x and move it over to 3x, and solve.
[tex]-2x + 12 = -10[/tex] | subtract 12 and move it over to -10, and solve.
[tex]-2x = -22[/tex] | divide by -2.
[tex]x = 11[/tex] | final answer.
hope this helps! ❤ from peachimin
