Your math problem:0.5(2x+2)=-4

Simplify both sides of the equation:
0.5(2x+2)=-4
Distribute: (0.5) (2x) + (0.5) (2) = -4
You will get x + 1 = -4 (subtract from both sides.)
x=-5
0.5(2*-5+2)=4 <- that was the check
So now you know you’re correct!!
So that’s you’re final answer
x= -5
Hope I helped!!

0.5(2x+2)=-4

Multiply by 2 on both sides

2x+2=-8

Subtract 2 on both sides

2x=-10

Divide by 2 on both sides

x=-5
