Simplify both sides of the equation.
3x−12=5x+10
Subtract 5x from both sides.
3x−12−5x=5x+10−5x >>>>>>>>>−2x−12=10
Add 12 to both sides.

−2x−12+12=10+12 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>−2x=22
Divide both sides by -2.
Distribution. :) \[3(x-4)=5(x+2)\\3x-12=5x+10\\-2x-12=10\\\frac{-2x}2=\frac{22}2\\x=-11\]
−2x/−2 = 22/−2
Thanks guys
