Error: They subtracted 9x from both sides when they should have subtracted 12. You can’t subtract unlike terms
Correct: x=-5/16
Subtract 12 from both sides to get -5 on the left and add 7x and 9x to get 16x. Divide both sides by 16 to isolate x.

Answer:

3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 12 + 9x = 7

16x + 12 = 7

       - 12    -12

16x = -5

16 divided by -5 is 3.2

x = 3.2
