  Here is the solution,

  =>3x + 12 -4x + 2 = 7

  => -x + 14= 7

  => -x = 7 -14

  => -x = -7

  Therefore X= 7 by cutting – from both side

  Given: 3(x+4)- 2(2x-1)= 7

  On solving

  3x+12-4x+2=7

  On rearranging we get,

  => 3x-4x= 7-12-2

  => -x= -7

  Multiplying both sides with -1 we get

  => x=7

  So, the value of x is 7.
