12x-(5x-8)=8+7x

Let's solve the equation step by step:

Given equation: 12x - (5x - 8) = 8 + 7x

First, let's remove the parentheses by distributing the negative sign inside them:

12x - 5x + 8 = 8 + 7x

Simplify the like terms:

7x + 8 = 8 + 7x

Now, subtract 7x from both sides to isolate the constant term:

7x - 7x + 8 = 8

Simplifying further:

8 = 8

The equation simplifies to 8 = 8, which is true. This means that the equation is true for all values of x.

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x can be any real number.
