Answer:

X=-3

Explanation:

Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation.

7x+8=3x-4

7x+8-8=3x-4-8

Subtract the numbers.

7x=3x-12

Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation.

7x=3x-12

7x-3x=3x-12-3x

Combine like terms.

4x=-12

4x/4=-12/4

Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator, then divide the numbers.

X=-3
