12 = 5x - 13x - 44

Please help me

eorder the terms:

12 = -44 + 5x + -13x

Combine like terms: 5x + -13x = -8x

12 = -44 + -8x

Solving

12 = -44 + -8x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '8x' to each side of the equation.

12 + 8x = -44 + -8x + 8x

Combine like terms: -8x + 8x = 0

12 + 8x = -44 + 0

12 + 8x = -44

Add '-12' to each side of the equation.

12 + -12 + 8x = -44 + -12

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0

0 + 8x = -44 + -12

8x = -44 + -12

Combine like terms: -44 + -12 = -56

8x = -56

Divide each side by '8'.

x = -7

Simplifying

x = -7

what is the question?

step-by-step explanation:

chemists are often responsible for designing a chemical reaction and analyzing the products obtained from it. one significant part of designing a chemical reaction is determining the amount of each reactant that is needed and the amount of each product that will be produced. in order to do so, chemists use stoichiometry, the quantitative relationships between reactants and products.
