Answer:

[tex]x=8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I wanna point out a minor mistake, are we supposed to figure out x?

If we are, let's start.

[tex]-12x+16-4x=-112.[/tex]

We don't need the [tex]16.[/tex]

We subtract the 16 from both sides.

SImplify, =[tex]16x=128[/tex]

Also, group like terms, and add similar elements.

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

-12x + 16 - 4x = -112

Combine like terms on the left side.

-16x + 16 = -112

Subtract 16 from both sides.

-16x = -128

Divide both sides by 16.

x = 8

Check:

-12x + 16 - 4x =

= -12(8) + 16 - 4(8)

= -96 + 16 - 32

= -80 - 32

= -112

-112 = -112

x = 8 is correct.

Answer: x = 8
