Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-2) = 3(x+2)-8

Multiply the 2 and 3 out to the numbers in the parentheses. Don't multiply the 3 out to the -8 because it is outside of the parentheses.

2x-4 = 3x+6-8

Combine the 6 and -8

2x-4 = 3x-2

Subtract 2x from both sides

-4 = x-2

Add 2 to both sides

-2=x
