Explanation:
1.2(-2x -4) =-8
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
2(−2x−4)=−8
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
2(−2x−4)=−8
(2)(−2x)+(2)(−4)=−8(Distribute)
−4x+−8=−8
−4x−8=−8
Step 2: Add 8 to both sides.
−4x−8+8=−8+8
−4x=0
x=0
2.−2(2x+6)=−8
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
−2(2x+6)=−8
(−2)(2x)+(−2)(6)=−8(Distribute)
−4x+−12=−8
−4x−12=−8
Step 2: Add 12 to both sides.
−4x−12+12=−8+12
−4x=4
x=-1
