Answer:

The required value for [tex]x =   \frac{144}{5} =  28.8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,the given expression is:

[tex]\frac{3}{8} x + 6 = \frac{3}{4} x -12[/tex]

Now, solving for the value of x:

[tex]\frac{3}{8}x - \frac{3}{4}x = -12 - 6[/tex]

or, [tex]\frac{3x - 6x}{8}  = -18[/tex]

or, [tex]\frac{5x}{8}  = 18[/tex]

or, [tex]x = \frac{8}{5} \times 18 = 28.8[/tex]

Hence, the required value for [tex]x =   \frac{144}{5} =  28.8[/tex]
