The solution

You have entered [src]
12*x + 3*(x - 4) = -7
$$12 x + 3 \left(x - 4\right) = -7$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
12*x+3*(x-4) = -7

Expand brackets in the left part
12*x+3*x-3*4 = -7

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
-12 + 15*x = -7

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$15 x = 5$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 15
x = 5 / (15)

We get the answer: x = 1/3
