Answer:

The value of x will be \frac{20}{3} .

Step-by-step explanation:

In context to questions asked

We have to determine the value of the equation,

Given that,

2x + 8 = 5x - 12

Subtract both sides by 8, we get

=> 2x + 8 -8= 5x - 12-8

Simplifying it further,

=> 2x = 5x - 12-8

Subtract the numbers,

=> 2x = 5x - 20

Subtract both sides by 2x,

=> 2x -5x= 5x - 20-5x

=> -3x = -20

Divide both sides by -3,

=>  x = \frac{20}{3}

Hence, the required solution is \frac{20}{3} .
