Step-by-step explanation:

2(7x +8)=12

2(7x +8)/2 =12/2

7x +8 =6

7x=6-8

7x = -2

x= -2/7

Hi there! :)

12=2(7x+8)

Use the Distributive property:

12=14x+16

Move all the numbers to the right side and the variables to the left side:

-14x=16-12

-14x=4

Divide both sides by -14 to isolate x:

x=[tex]-\frac{4}{14} \\-\frac{2}{7}[/tex]

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

Hope this helps you!
