5*x + 4 = x - 8
5x+4=x85 x + 4 = x - 8
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
5*x+4 = x-8

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
5x=x125 x = x - 12
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
4x=124 x = -12
Divide both parts of the equation by 4
x = -12 / (4)

We get the answer: x = -3
