Hi my lil bunny!

\boxed{x = -44}


4(4+2x)=7(x-4)

Solution :


4(4+2x)=7(x-4)


( 2x + 4 ) = 7 ( x - 4 )


4 . 2x + 4 . 4 = 7x - 7 . 4


8x + 16 = 7x - 28


( 8x + 16) + ( -16 - 7x ) = ( 7x - 28 ) + ( -16 - 7x )


( 8x + 16 ) + ( -7x - 16) = (7x - 28 ) + ( -7x - 16)


8x + 16 - 7x - 16 = 7x - 28 - 7x - 16


8x - 7x + 16 - 16 = 7x - 7x - 28 - 16


x = -44

( A: The solution set is (_) Simplified )

Answer:

x=-44

Explanation:

4(4+2x)=7(x-4)

[expanding the brackets]

16+8x=7x-28

[grouping like terms]

8x-7x= -28-16

x= - 44
