Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
2x−4(x+2)=−2x−8
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
2x−4(x+2)=−2x−8
2x+(−4)(x)+(−4)(2)=−2x+−8(Distribute)
2x+−4x+−8=−2x+−8
(2x+−4x)+(−8)=−2x−8(Combine Like Terms)
−2x+−8=−2x−8
−2x−8=−2x−8
Step 2: Add 2x to both sides.
−2x−8+2x=−2x−8+2x
−8=−8
Step 3: Add 8 to both sides.
−8+8=−8+8
0=0
