3 (2x + 8) = 0
Divide each side by 3 : 2x + 8 = 0
Subtract 8 from each side: 2x = - 8
Divide each side by 2 :
x = - 4

3(2x+8)=0
Simplify both sides of the equation.
3(2x+8)=0
(3)(2x)+(3)(8)=0(Distribute)
6x+24=0
Subtract 24 from both sides.
6x+24−24=0−24
6x=−24
Divide both sides by 6.
6x/6 = −24/6
x=−4
