Step-by-step explanation


\begin{gathered} 4\left(x+1\right)=−6\left(1−x\right)+8x \\ open\text{ parenthesis} \\ 4x+4=-6+6x+8x \\ 4x+4=14x-6 \\ switch\text{ sides} \\ 14x-6=4x+4 \\ collect\text{ like terms} \\ 14x-4x=6+4 \\ 10x=10 \\ divide\text{ both sides by 10} \\ (10x)/(10)=(10)/(10) \\ x=1 \end{gathered}

Answer: x=1
