20=8+3(12+4x) Please help
It's really hard

So first, you have to remember the order of operations. That means that whatever is in the parentheses is what has to be done first
However, because one of the numbers in the parentheses is a variable and the other isn't, we can distribute instead
Therefore, 3(12+4x) distributes by multiplying the 3 into both numbers in the parentheses. So we get 36+12x
Now the equation is 20=8+36+12x
Now, bring all numbers without variables on the left side

20-8-36=8-8+36-36+12x
20-8-36=12x

Now simplify

20-8-36=12x
12-36=12x
-24=12x

Divide both sides by 12, and you get x=-2

Hope this helped!!! :D

20 = 8 + 3(12 + 4x)

First, distribute 3:

20 = 8 + 36 + 12x

Add:

20 = 44 + 12x

Subtract 44 to both sides:

-24 = 12x

Divide 12 to both sides:

x = -2

Answer: question no. 1 -a. yes, the sides are in the ratio 2 : 5.question no. 2 -b. 59°question no. 3 -c. angles x and y are remote interior angles.question no. 4 -d. 90°, 45° and 45°question no. 5 -b. mn and qrstep-by-step explanation: question no. 1 -rs : xu = 3 : 7.5 = 2 : 5rt : x? = 6.4 : 16 = 2 : 5st : u? = 6 : 15 = 2 : 5as the ratios of all sides are equivalent, the triangles must be congruent and the sides must be proportional.therefore, the answer is: a. yes, the sides are in the ratio 2 : 5.question no. 2 -in the second diagram, angle b is the only letter not shown. therefore, the number must be equivalent to angle b.if we substitute the value of angle b as being 22° in the first diagram, we can now use the angle sum of a triangle to obtain the value of angle a.angle sum of a triangle = 180°therefore: let angle a = aa + 99 + 22 = 180a = 180 - 99 - 22a = 59°therefore, the answer is: b. 59°question no. 3 -angles x and y don't share the vertex of the triangle with the exterior angle w. remote interior angles don't share a vertex of a triangle with an exterior angle. this means that angles x and y are remote interior angles.therefore, the answer is: c. angles x and y are remote interior angles.question no. 4 -the sum of all interior angles of a triangle must be equivalent to 180°.90°, 45° and 45° are the only set of angle measures that are equivalent to 180°.therefore, the answer is: d. 90°, 45° and 45°question no. 5 -the only pair of sides stated in the options which are corresponding are mn and qr.therefore, the answer is: b. mn and qr.
