Answer 4

Yeah :)

Answer 5

Simplifying
4(s + 3) = 8

Reorder the terms:
4(3 + s) = 8
(3 * 4 + s * 4) = 8
(12 + 4s) = 8

Solving
12 + 4s = 8

Solving for variable 's'.

Move all terms containing s to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-12' to each side of the equation.
12 + -12 + 4s = 8 + -12

Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0
0 + 4s = 8 + -12
4s = 8 + -12

Combine like terms: 8 + -12 = -4
4s = -4

Divide each side by '4'.
s = -1

Simplifying
s = -1
