Answer 4

42+x^2+2x=4x-8

Answer 5

6(x+4)=8(x-2)

6(x+4)=8x-16

6x+24=8x-16

-2x+24=-16

-2x=-40

x=20

Answer 6

6x+24=8x-16
16-24=-8
6-8=-2
2x= -8
4?

Answer 7

answer being 4

Answer 8

no

Answer 9

no?

Answer 10

6(x+4)=8(x-2)

Multiply 8 by each term inside the parentheses.
6(x+4)=8x-16

Multiply 6 by each term inside the parentheses.
6x+24=8x-16

Move all terms not containing x to the right-hand side of the equation.
-2x+24=-16

Move all terms not containing x to the right-hand side of the equation.
-2x=-40

Divide each term in the equation by -2.
x=20

Answer 11
