Answer 2

Answer:

x=14

Explanation:

Simplifying

2x + 12 = 40

Reorder the terms:

12 + 2x = 40

Solving

12 + 2x = 40

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-12' to each side of the equation.

12 + -12 + 2x = 40 + -12

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0

0 + 2x = 40 + -12

2x = 40 + -12

Combine like terms: 40 + -12 = 28

2x = 28

Divide each side by '2'.

x = 14

Simplifying

x = 14

hope it helps you:)
