x+5 = 3(x-4) +5
x+5-5= 3(x-4)
x = 3(x-4)
x = 3x - 12
x-3x = -12
-2x = -12
x = 12/2
x = 6
hope it helps u..

Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 5 = 3x - 12 + 5 (Distributive property)
x + 5 = 3x - 7 (Combining like terms)
-2x + 5 = -7 (Subtracting 3x from both sides)
-2x = -7 - 5 (Subtracting 5 from both sides)
-2x = -12 (Combining like terms)
-x = -6 (Dividing both sides by 2)
x = 6 (Multiplying both sides by -1 to remove -)
Hope this is clear!
