Question

-1/8(x-4)=-4 how do i show my work

Answer 1

Answer: the answer is x=36

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify  \frac{1}{8}(x-4)

8

1

​

(x−4)  to  \frac{x-4}{8}

8

x−4

​

.

-\frac{x-4}{8}=-4

−

8

x−4

​

=−4

2 Multiply both sides by 88.

-x+4=-4\times 8

−x+4=−4×8

3 Simplify  4\times 84×8  to  3232.

-x+4=-32

−x+4=−32

4 Regroup terms.

4-x=-32

4−x=−32

5 Subtract 44 from both sides.

-x=-32-4

−x=−32−4

6 Simplify  -32-4−32−4  to  -36−36.

-x=-36

−x=−36

7 Multiply both sides by -1−1.

x=36

x=36
