Respuesta :
-2(x + 3) = 8
Multiply -2 with x and 3
-2x -6 = 8
Now add 6 to both sides
-2x -6 = 8
+6 +8
-2x = 16
Lastly divide -2 from both sides to find x
-2x = 16

Answer:
x=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
-2(x+3)=8
-2x-6=8
-2x=8+6
-2x=14 -2x/-2=14/-2
x= -7
if you want to be sure do the following
-2(-7+3)=8
-2(-4)=8
8=8
