The solution set is \(\{4\}\).
Solución
We start with the equation
\[
2(3x+12)=2(4x+8).
\]
First, divide both sides by 2:
\[
3x+12=4x+8.
\]
Next, subtract \(3x\) from both sides:
\[
12=x+8.
\]
Then, subtract 8 from both sides:
\[
x=4.
\]
Thus, the solution set is \(\{4\}\).
Since none of the provided choices exactly state \(\{4\}\), the correct selection is to complete choice A with the answer \(\{4\}\).

Let's solve the equation step-by-step: Starting with: \[ 2(3x + 12) = 2(4x + 8) \] 1. Distribute the 2 on both sides: \[ 6x + 24 = 8x + 16 \] 2. Rearrange the equation by moving all terms involving \( x \) to one side and constant terms to the other side: \[ 6x - 8x = 16 - 24 \] This results in: \[ -2x = -8 \] 3. Now, divide both sides by -2: \[ x = 4 \] The solution set is \( \{4\} \). Thus, the correct choice is: A. The solution set is \{4\}.
