Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
4x - 2(x + 3) = 8
4x - 2x - 6 = 8
2x - 6 = 8
2x = 14
x = 7
First step is to distribute -2 to x and 3, which equals -2x and -6
Second step is to subtract 4x - 2x, which equals 2x
Third step is to add -6 to 8, which equals 14
last step is to divide, 2x / 14, which equals 7
I hope this is correct
