Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute- 8-0.5x=-4.5x+12+4
combine like terms- 8-0.5x=-4.5x+16
combine more by subtracting 8 from both sides- -0.5x=-4.5x+8
and more by adding 4.5 to each side 4x=8
and finally divide 4 from both sides to get x=2
hope this helps! have a great day/night :)
*I changed it to decimals just because it was easier for me you can keep them as fractions and get the same result*
