Answer:
Unfortunately, there is NO ANSWER!
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Distribute
When you do this, you get: [tex]-8x-4=-8x-2[/tex].
Step 2: Add 8x to both sides.
When you do this, you get: [tex]-4=-2[/tex], which is not true, so there is NO ANSWER!
Side note:
It's really easy if you do these steps. If this happens, you always have 0 or 1 answer/result for the variable. Usually, you need to substitute to get the answer.
