Start by solving the operations and reducing similar terms:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4x+12x-2=4(4x+5) \\ 16x-2=16x+20 \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, solve the equation for x, it means, isolate x to one of the sides of the equal sign:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 16x-16x=20+2 \\ 0x=22 \\ 0=22 \\ 0\ne22 \end{gathered}[/tex]According to this the answer is that 0 equals 22 but this is not true. This means that the correct choice is D. The equation has no solution.
