Answer:

x = -4

Explanation:

Since you cannot simplify this equation all the way, it will end as an expression. Since you did not put anything at one side of the equation, I will assume you are trying to find the value of x

So, you add the like terms to get

8 + 2x = 0

Now subtract 8 from both sides to get

2x = -8

Now divide 2 from both sides to isolate x

x = -4

If I read the question wrong and you just want to simplify the expression, then the answer is 8 + 2x
