The solution

You have entered [src]
2*(8 - x) + 8 = 4*(3*x - 1)
2(8x)+8=4(3x1)2 \left(8 - x\right) + 8 = 4 \left(3 x - 1\right)
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
2*(8-x)+8 = 4*(3*x-1)

Expand brackets in the left part
2*8-2*x+8 = 4*(3*x-1)

Expand brackets in the right part
2*8-2*x+8 = 4*3*x-4*1

Looking for similar summands in the left part:
24 - 2*x = 4*3*x-4*1

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
2x=12x28- 2 x = 12 x - 28
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
(14)x=28\left(-14\right) x = -28
Divide both parts of the equation by -14
x = -28 / (-14)

We get the answer: x = 2
