this is hard:( it's not 2 or 3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so stuck can i have guidance
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sure
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
I'll give you a nudge
3x + 2 = 4x - 8
3x + 2 - 4x = -8 ... Subtract 4x from both sides.
3x - 4x = -8 - 2 ... Subtract 2 from both sides.
Can you take over from here?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes let me try:)))))))
