Answer:
X=8
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(x-4)=8
Divide both sides by -2−2.
x-4=-8\-2
Two negatives make a positive.
x-4=8/2
Simplify 8/2 to 4
x-4=4
Add 4 to both sides.
x=4+4
Simplify 4+4 to 8.
x=8
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(x-4)=8
distribute
-2x+8=-8
add 2x to both sides
-2x+2x+8=-8+2x
8=-8+2x
devide both sides by 2
4=-4+x
add 4 to both sides
8=x
