x cannot be solved
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we will have to deal with the bracket first
So let's solve
2x-12=2 (x-10) - 8
Bracket first
2x-12=2x-20-8
Collect like terms
-12+8+20=2x-2x
16=0
Therefore x cannot be solved due to the fact that x has been eliminated during our solving
It will be best to say that x cannot be solved
