What is the solution for the equation 8x – 12 = 4x?
x= 48
x= 30
x=3
x=1

C. x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 12 = 4x

+12        + 12

8x = 4x + 12

-4x   -4x

4x = 12

  ---

4     4

x = 3

C. x = 3

8x-12= 4x

move -12 to the other side

sign changes from -12 to +12

8x-12+12= 4x+12

8x=4x+12

move 4x to the other side.

sign changes from +4x to -4x

8x-4x= 4x-4x+12

8x-4x= 12

4x=12

divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself

4x/4= 12/4

x= 3

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
