For this case we must solve the following equation:
[tex]\frac {x} {4} + 2 = -12[/tex]
Subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation we have:
[tex]\frac {x} {4} = - 12-2[/tex]
Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.
[tex]\frac {x} {4} = - 14[/tex]
Multiplying by 4 on both sides of the equation we have:
[tex]x = -14 * 4\\x = -56[/tex]
Thus, the solution of the equation is [tex]x = -56[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]x = -56[/tex]
