Answer:

Eight less than four times a number is equal to two times the difference of double that same number decreased by three.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

4x−8=2(2x−3)

We will try to translate the given equation in English.

We can see that the variable used is only one. On the left hand side of the equation 8 is being subtracted from 4 times of the variable and on the right hand side 3 is being subtracted from 2 times of variable and then being multiplied by two.

From the given option, correct answer is:

if we look on one side, we already have one measurement. 4 cm. ok, that's the measurement on that side. look to the left now. that other side is also the same length, so we take that number and multiply it be 2 to get

$4 \times 2$

Wait! we're not done yet. look at the top. do you see the 3? well that's the width for the top of the rectangle. the bottom must be the same to right? so we get

$3 \times 2$
