24-16x=x-11x
Use the distributive property to multiply 2 by 12-8x.
24-16x=-10x
Combine x and -11x to get -10x.
24-16x+10x=0
Add 10x to both sides.
24-6x=0
Combine -16x and 10x to get -6x.
-6x=-24
Subtract 24 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-24}{-6}
Divide both sides by -6.
x=4
Divide -24 by -6 to get 4.
