-x + 4 = 32

Answer 6

:P that works...

Answer 7

As I have said MANY times, unique answers don't care how you find them. Personally, I prefer moving negative values rather that multiplying by negative values. It makes INequalities so much simpler!

Anyway, always keep your eyes open for multiple avenues.

Answer 8

I know, I know, some people will panic when they see an x on the right hand side. I suggest such individuals simply get over it. ;-)

Answer 9

haha :P I've completed algebra 2 so it doesn't bother me. ;)

Answer 10

"=" is reflexive!

x = -28 is the same as -28 = x

Good work.

Answer 11

Haha math just doesn't click in my head. Ive tried everything but when it comes to math, just looking at the problem scares me

Answer 12

Don't let it scare you. Tell yourself you love it... That's what I did... I got a 100 in Algebra 2

Answer 13

ahahaha I sucked in Algebra II. It was more of a social problem in high school, though. Once I woke up, all was well. You don't want to know what year that was. :-)

Answer 14
