What is the solution to 0. 3(12x - 16) = 0. 4(12 - 3x)?.

First, let's solve the brackets. Use the distribution property. It simply means multiplying the value outside of the brackets to each value inside the brackets.

[tex]3\left(12x-16\right)[/tex]

[tex]=3\cdot \:12x-3\cdot \:16[/tex]

[tex]=36x-48[/tex]

[tex]4\left(12-3x\right)[/tex]

[tex]=4\cdot \:12-4\cdot \:3x[/tex]

[tex]=48-12x[/tex]

Now we've simplified the expression to:

[tex]36x-48=48-12x[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Add\:}48\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}[/tex]

[tex]36x-48+48=48-12x+48[/tex]

[tex]36x=-12x+96[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Add\:}12x\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}[/tex]

[tex]36x+12x=-12x+96+12x[/tex]

[tex]48x=96[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}48[/tex]

[tex]\frac{48x}{48}=\frac{96}{48}[/tex]

[tex]\bold{x=2}[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is [tex]x = 2[/tex]

The solution of the given equation [tex]0. 3(12x - 16) = 0. 4(12 - 3x)[/tex] is [tex]x=2[/tex].

Given equation,

[tex]0. 3(12x - 16) = 0. 4(12 - 3x)[/tex]

Use the simple rules of algebra like the BODMAS rule to get the equivalent expression for the given equation.

Simplified expression:

Firstly, open the brackets and then multiply the coefficients. In the next step arrange the terms to get the simplified solution.

On Solving the brackets, we get

[tex]3.6x-4.8=4.8-1.2x\\[/tex]

[tex]3.6 \ x+1.2 \ x=4.8+4.8[/tex]

[tex]4.8 \ x=9.6 \\x=\dfrac{9.6}{4.8} \\[/tex]

[tex]\ x= 2[/tex]

Hence, the solution of the given equation is [tex]x=2[/tex].
