Answer:
Answer: D. x/4 = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Equations
Solve the following equation:
x - 12 = 40
Adding 12:
x = 52
Let's test each option to find which one of them has the same solution.
A. x/2 = 14
Multiplying by 2:
x = 28
B. x + 12 = 40
Subtracting 12:
x = 28
C. 12 - x = 40
Subtracting 12:
-x = 28
Multiplying by -1:
x = -28
D. x/4 = 13
Multiplying by 4:
x = 52
This last option is true.
Answer: D. x/4 = 13
