The required value of 12x is 10
Given the expression
2x + 5 = 8x
Subtract 8x from both sides
2x + 5 - 8x = 8x - 8x
2x - 8x + 5 = 0
-6x + 5 = 0
Subtract 5 from both sides
-6x + 5 - 5 = 0 - 5
-6x = -5
x = -5/-6
x = 5/6
Next is to get the value of 12x
12 x = 12(5/6)
12x = 2 × 5
12x = 10
Hence the value of 12x is 10
