2x - 4 (x + 2) = - 2X-8

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the value of x in the 2x - 4 (x + 2) = - 2X-8

we are going to apply bodmas rule by first opening the bracket

we have,

2x-4x-8 = 2x - 8

we proceed to collect the like terms

2x - 4x-2x = - 8 + 8

-4x = 0

divide both sides by - 4

-4x/-4 = 0/-4

x = 0
