Answer:

0

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8x+4(4x+3)=4(6x+4)−4

8x+(4)(4x)+(4)(3)=(4)(6x)+(4)(4)+−4(Distribute)

8x+16x+12=24x+16+−4

(8x+16x)+(12)=(24x)+(16+−4)(Combine Like Terms)

24x+12=24x+12

24x+12=24x+12

Step 2: Subtract 24x from both sides.

24x+12−24x=24x+12−24x

12=12

Step 3: Subtract 12 from both sides.

12−12=12−12

0=0
