-24=2(x-4) What's X?

2 answers:

8 0

Your going to be using the distributive property for this question.
So after you have distributed the 2 to the X and the -4 , you are left with 2x-8=-24
Next, add the 8 to the -24
So your left with 2x=16
Lastly, divide 16/2

Your answer should be x=8
Hope this helped!
