"Solve and check
`8-(6-8x)=4x+4`"...

Solve for x:

`8-(6-8x)=4x+4`
Remove the Parenthesis.

`8-6-8x=4x+4`
Simplify.

`2-8x=4x+4`
Add -4 to both sides.

`(2-8x)+(-4)=(4x+4)+(-4)`
Simplify.

`-2-8x=4x`
Add 8x to both sides.

`(-2-8x)+8x=(4x)+8x`
Simplify.

`-2=12x`
Divide both sides by 12.

`(-2)/12=(12x)/12`
Simplify.

`-0.166666667=x`

The answer is: x=-0.166666667

Hope this helps.
