We are given the function <span>–2x – 4 + 5x = 8 and is asked in the problem to solve for the variable x in the function. In this case, we can first group the like terms and put them in their corresponding sides:
-2x + 5x =8+4
Then, do the necessary operations.
3x = 12
x = 4.
The variable x has a value of 4.</span>
