Answer: -48 does not equal 48
Explanation: You distribute 8 to 3x and -6 in the first half of the equation and then on the second half you distribute the 6 to the 4x and the 8 after you do so your equation should look like this: 24x-48=24x+48
You then subtract 24x from both sides and you will end up with -48=48 which is not true.
