To solve for x, we need to get all the x terms on the same side and all the constant terms on the other side.
(-6) + 12x = 7x - 10
Adding 6 to both sides:
12x = 7x - 4
Subtracting 7x from both sides:
5x = -4
Dividing both sides by 5:
x = -4/5
So, the value of x that makes this equation true is:
x = -4/5
C) -4/5
