Question

-3-4(4x-8)=3(-8x-1) I will give BRAINLIEST! show all steps please :(

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall the Order of Operations rules:

Any work enclosed in parentheses must be done first if possible; in this particular problem, nothing inside parentheses is possible.

Next:  multiplication and division, and

Finally:  addition and subtraction.

Thus, we must focus on the multiplication -3(4x - 8) and 3(-8x - 1) first:

-3   -16x + 32 = -24x - 3

Adding 3 to both sides simplifies this equation to  -16x + 32 = -24x.

Adding 16x to both sides isolates x on the right side:  32 = -8x.

Finally, x = -32/8, or x = -4

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

-3-4 -32x=3×8x

-3-4-32x=24x

-6=32x+24x

-6=56x

:. x=-28/3
