Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Distribute
-4(x + 8)
Distribute: -4(x) -4(8)
Simplify: -4x - 32
Step 2: Solve for x
Add 32 to both side: -4x - 32 + 32 = 0 + 32
Divide -4 on both sides: -4x/-4 = 32/-4
Simplify: x = -8
Answer: - 8
-4x - 32=0
-4x=0+32
-4x=32 (divide both sides by - 4)
x= - 32/4
x= - 8
