Let us solve the equation to arrange the steps

[tex]-3(4+3x)+5x=-16[/tex]

In the first step, we must multiply the bracket by -3 (distributive property)

[tex](-3)(4)_{}+(-3)(3x)=-12-9x[/tex]

Then the equation is

[tex]-12-9x+5x=-16[/tex]

Now add the like terms on the left side

[tex]\begin{gathered} -12+(-9x+5x)=-16 \\ -12x+(-4x)=-16 \\ -12-4x=-16 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Next step, add 12 to both sides
