Your answer :
5 ( x - 1 ) - 3 = 12
So, in order to open the brackets we will multiply 5 with x and -1.
5x - 5 - 3 = 12
Now, we will solve -5 and -3.
5x - 8 = 12
Now, we will take -8 to the right hand side.
5x = 12 + 8
Now, we will solve 12 and 8.
5x = 20
Now, in order to get 'x' we will take 5 to the right hand side which will put 5 in the denominators place and 20 being in the numerators place.
x = 20/5
Now, we will solve 20/5.
x = 4
Here is your answer.
Hope this helps.
