Answer:

x=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the equation, isolate the variable. Do this by combining like terms and using the properties of equality. Remember that like terms are terms with the same degree and variables. Thus, constants are like terms.

  • 2x+5+12=-3

First, combine the like terms of 5 and 12

  • 2x+17=-3

Then, subtract 17 from both sides

  • 2x=-20

Finally, divide both sides by 2

  • x=-10
