2x+8=2(x+4)

mutiply the bracket by 2

(2)(x)= 2x

(2)(4)= 8

2x+8= 2x+8

move 2x to the left side

sign changes from +2x to -2x

2x-2x+8= 2x-2x+8

0+8= 0+8

8= 8

all real numbers

Answer:

all real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

2x +8 = 2(x+4)

2x+8 = 2x +8

0=0

since the solution is 0=0, that means you can replace x with any number, and the equation will always work out
