consider the equation

Answer: 6
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 2(4 + px) = 12x (write it down)
2. 8 + 2px = 12x (distributive property)
3. 8/2 + 2px/2 = 12x/2 (divide all by 2
4. 4 + px = 6x
5. 4 = 6x - px
Plug all in:
4 = 6x - 2x (possinle)
4 = 6x - 6x (not possible)
4 = 6x - 12x (possible)
4 = 6x - 24x (possible)
Answer: 6
because:
4 = 6x - 6x
4 = 0
