Answer: x = 46

Explanation:

**Disclaimer** I am not quite sure of your question, but I am assuming there is an equal sign in between the two expressions. If it was, then you can refer to my answers. If it was not, then you may clarify your question and I will redo it for you.

Given

2x + 4 = 4x - 88

Add 88 on both sides

2x + 4 + 88 = 4x - 88 + 88

2x + 92 = 4x

Subtract 2x on both sides

2x + 92 - 2x = 4x - 2x

92 = 2x

Divide 2 on both sides

92 / 2 = 2x / 2

x = 46

Hope this helps!! :)

Please let me know if you have any questions
