Sagot :

[tex]8(4x-5)-12=20x-10\\ 32x-40-12=20x-10\\ 12x=42\\ x=\frac{42}{12}=\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
[tex]8(4x - 5)-12=20x-10[/tex]

[tex]32x - 40-12=20x-10[/tex]

[tex]32x -52=20x-10[/tex]

[tex]32x -52 -20x=-10[/tex]

[tex]12x -52=-10[/tex]

[tex]12x =-10 +52[/tex]

[tex]12x =42[/tex]

[tex]x= \frac{42}{12} [/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{7}{2} [/tex]
