12-3x=12+3x
Use the distributive property to multiply 3 by 4+x.
12-3x-3x=12
Subtract 3x from both sides.
12-6x=12
Combine -3x and -3x to get -6x.
-6x=12-12
Subtract 12 from both sides.
-6x=0
Subtract 12 from 12 to get 0.
x=0
Product of two numbers is equal to 0 if at least one of them is 0. Since -6 is not equal to 0, x must be equal to 0.
