8x - 4 = 32/2
8x - 4 = 16
8x = 16 + 4
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 5/2
Math 2(8x -4) = 32 show work-example-1

2(8x - 4) = 32 distribute through parenthesis
16x - 8 =32 add 8 on both sides to isolate x
16x = 40 divide by 16 on both sides to isolate x
x= 40/16 simplify, Divide 40 by 16
x = 2.5 this is your final answer, I hope it helps!
