Which of the following numbers would you subtract from each side of the equation x + 12 = 17 + 3 to get the variable by itself?

17

12

3

1/12

you will subtract 17 from both sides to get the variable by itself.

Step-by-step explanation:

x+12=17+3.

subtract 12 from both sides

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
