Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In algebra, the goal is always to isolate the variable, so its value can be determined.

<h3>Step 1: Use distributive property</h3>

-8 = -x + -4

<h3>Step 2: Subtract -4</h3>

-4 = -x

<h3>Step 3: Multiply by -1</h3>

4 = x

<h3>Step 4: Check</h3>

-8 = -(4 + 4)

-8 = -8 ✔

<h3>Step 5: Answer</h3>

x = 4

I'm always happy to help :)

Practice solving quadratic equations.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

In order for the equation to be true, one of the factors on the left has to equal zero

So, 2x-3=0 or x-4=0 (the 3 on the left for multiplication doesn’t affect the possible answers for x)

Once you solve them, you conclude that x has to be 4 or 3/2.
