Question #9f361

Answer 1

-12

Explanation:

When you are looking at equations like this, with one variable and numbers, you always want to start by moving the like terms to one side. In this case:

`-1/4x-x=3+12`

And then combine like terms:

`-5/4x=15`

Solve for x:

`x=15xx(-4/5)`
`x=3xx(-4)`
`x=-12`
