You use the distributive property to simplify:

-2+12x (two negatives equal a positive)=-5+8

Now we add like terms:
-2+12x=3

Next we add -2 to both sides to separate the variable:

12x=5

x=5/12

I hope this helps!

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{5}{12}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

  -2(1-6x)=(-5+8)

⇔

   -2+12x=3

⇔

   12x = 3+2

⇔

  12x = 5

⇔

   x = 5/12
