5*x + 4 = x - 12
5x+4=x125 x + 4 = x - 12
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
5*x+4 = x-12

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
5x=x165 x = x - 16
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
4x=164 x = -16
Divide both parts of the equation by 4
x = -16 / (4)

We get the answer: x = -4
