The solution

You have entered [src]
5 = 12 - 5*(4*x - 1)
$$5 = 12 - 5 \left(4 x - 1\right)$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
5 = 12-5*(4*x-1)

Expand brackets in the right part
5 = 12-5*4*x+5*1

Looking for similar summands in the right part:
5 = 17 - 20*x

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$0 = 12 - 20 x$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$20 x = 12$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 20
x = 12 / (20)

We get the answer: x = 3/5
