Question 595378
{{{4x-8=6x+20}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{4x=6x+20+8}}} Add {{{8}}} to both sides.



{{{4x-6x=20+8}}} Subtract {{{6x}}} from both sides.



{{{-2x=20+8}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{-2x=28}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(28)/(-2)}}} Divide both sides by {{{-2}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.



{{{x=-14}}} Reduce.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=-14}}}
