Manuela solved the equation below.<br><br><br><br> What is the solution to Manuela’s equation?
BabaBlast [244]

For this case we have the following equation:

2 (x + 2) = x-4

Applying distributive property to the terms within the parentheses on the left side of the equation we have:

2x + 4 = x-4

Subtracting "x" on both sides of the equation we have:

2x-x + 4 = -4\\x + 4 = -4

Subtracting 4 on both sides of the equation we have:

x = -4-4\\x = -8

Answer:

x = -8
