Solution:
The given equation is: 12x � 28 = -63 + 7x
Grouping all the like terms, that is bringing all the x terms to one side, we get:
12x - 7x � 28 = -63
Adding 28 to both sides of the above equation, we get:
==> 12x � 7x = -63 + 28
==> 5x = - 35
==> x = -35/5
==> x = -7
Thus, the value of x = -7
