Answer:

We conclude that the solution is:

  • [tex]x = -101[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

[tex]12\left(x\:+\:8\right)\:=\:11x\:-\:5[/tex]

Expand 12(x + 8):  12x + 96

[tex]12x+96=11x-5[/tex]

Subtract 96 from both sides

[tex]12x+96-96=11x-5-96[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]12x=11x-101[/tex]

Subtract 11x from both sides

[tex]12x-11x=11x-101-11x[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]x=-101[/tex]

Therefore, we conclude that the solution is:

  • [tex]x = -101[/tex]
