Solve to find the value for x in the linear equation: 3(−4x + 5) = 12. 1. Use the distributive property:

2. Use the subtraction property of equality:

3. Division property of equality:

3(−4x) + 3(5) = 12

−12x + 15 = 12

−12x + 15 − 15 = 12 − 15

−12x = −3

Solving the linear equation we get

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve to find the value for x in the linear equation:

1. Use the distributive property:

Multiply 3 with terms inside the bracket

2. Use the subtraction property of equality:

Subtracting 15 on both sides

3. Division property of equality:

Divide both sides by -12

So, solving the linear equation we get
