Question 675492
{{{4x-3=12x+24}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{4x=12x+24+3}}} Add {{{3}}} to both sides.



{{{4x-12x=24+3}}} Subtract {{{12x}}} from both sides.



{{{-8x=24+3}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{-8x=27}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(27)/(-8)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-8}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=-27/8}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=-27/8}}}
