-12abs + 8absx = (7 * abs + 3x * abs)
-12abs + 8absx = (7abs + 3absx)

Solving
-12abs + 8absx = 7abs + 3absx

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-7abs' to each side of the equation.
-12abs + -7abs + 8absx = 7abs + -7abs + 3absx

Combine like terms: -12abs + -7abs = -19abs
-19abs + 8absx = 7abs + -7abs + 3absx

Combine like terms: 7abs + -7abs = 0
-19abs + 8absx = 0 + 3absx
-19abs + 8absx = 3absx

Add '-3absx' to each side of the equation.
-19abs + 8absx + -3absx = 3absx + -3absx

Combine like terms: 8absx + -3absx = 5absx
-19abs + 5absx = 3absx + -3absx

Combine like terms: 3absx + -3absx = 0
-19abs + 5absx = 0
