    6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If 10 + 5x is 12 more than 8, what is the value of 3x? We can represent this with the equation below.

    10+5x = 12+8.

    Simplifying this gives us 10+5x = 20, then 5x = 10, then x = 2.

    If x = 2, then 3x = 6.

    3x=6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    10 + 5x = 8+12

    10 + 5x = 20

    Subtract 10 from each side

    10-10+5x=20-10

    5x = 10

    Divide by 5

    5x/5 = 10/5

    x = 2

    We want 3x

    3 (2) = 6

    3x=6
