5x + 4 = x + 12 how do find x

2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you must subtract 4 from sides of the equal sign. When you have reached 5x=x+8. You must subtract x from both sides of the equal sign. You should end with 4x=8, you then divide 4x by 4 and 8 by 4. Finally you will finish with a answer of x=2.
