The solution

You have entered [src]
-8*x + 4*(7 - 9*x) = x - 4
$$- 8 x + 4 \left(7 - 9 x\right) = x - 4$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
-8*x+4*(7-9*x) = x-4

Expand brackets in the left part
-8*x+4*7-4*9*x = x-4

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
28 - 44*x = x-4

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$- 44 x = x - 32$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$\left(-45\right) x = -32$$
Divide both parts of the equation by -45
x = -32 / (-45)

We get the answer: x = 32/45
