Try solving the equation 2x + 20 = 12x

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 20 = 12x

First, we have to put our exponent on the same side of our equation

2x + 20 = 12x

-2x            -2x

20 = 10x

Now, we have to divide by 10 on both sides to get our exponent on its own (x)

20 = 10x

÷10   ÷10

2 = x or x =2

Hope this Helps! :)
