Bot GPT 3.5 To solve the equation 1/3x - 4 = -12, we can start by adding 4 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with x:
1/3x = -12 + 4
This simplifies to:
1/3x = -8
Next, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of 1/3, which is 3/1 or simply 3:
3/1 * (1/3x) = 3/1 * -8
This simplifies to:
x = -24
So, the solution to the equation is x = -24.
