Answer:

There is no solution

Explanation:

2x + 4(5 - 2) = 12

Solve for x

_______________

To solve, we need to get x on its own :

2x + 4(5 - 2) = 12

Distribute :

2x + (4(5) - 4(2)) = 12

2x + 20 - 8 = 12

Add like terms :

2x + 12 = 12

Subtract 12 from both sides :

2x = 0

Therefore there is no solution to this equation

Answer:

0

Explanation:

2x + 4 (5-2) = 12

   distribute

2x +  20-8 = 12

simplify

2x + 12 = 12

- 12      - 12

2x = 0

/ 2    / 2

x = 0
