Answer: Simplifying

4(6x + -4) = 8(3x + -2)

Reorder the terms:

4(-4 + 6x) = 8(3x + -2)

(-4 * 4 + 6x * 4) = 8(3x + -2)

(-16 + 24x) = 8(3x + -2)

Reorder the terms:

-16 + 24x = 8(-2 + 3x)

-16 + 24x = (-2 * 8 + 3x * 8)

-16 + 24x = (-16 + 24x)

Add '16' to each side of the equation.

-16 + 16 + 24x = -16 + 16 + 24x

Combine like terms: -16 + 16 = 0

0 + 24x = -16 + 16 + 24x

24x = -16 + 16 + 24x

Combine like terms: -16 + 16 = 0

24x = 0 + 24x

24x = 24x

Add '-24x' to each side of the equation.

24x + -24x = 24x + -24x

Combine like terms: 24x + -24x = 0

0 = 24x + -24x

Combine like terms: 24x + -24x = 0

0 = 0

Solving

0 = 0

Step-by-step explanation: oof lol bye
