Answer:3(x+1)=12+4(x−1)
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by x+1.
3x+3=12+4(x−1)
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by x−1.
3x+3=12+4x−4
Subtract 4 from 12 to get 8.
3x+3=8+4x
Subtract 4x from both sides.
3x+3−4x=8
Combine 3x and −4x to get −x.
−x+3=8
Subtract 3 from both sides.
−x=8−3
Subtract 3 from 8 to get 5.
−x=5
Multiply both sides by −1.
x=−5
