The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
8-4*x = 2*x-16
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 4 x = 2 x - 24$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\left(-6\right) x = -24$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -6
x = -24 / (-6)
We get the answer: x = 4
