    x = - 8

    Step-by-step explanation:

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

    Distribute

    -8x-12 = 2x+6-8x-2

    Combine like terms

    -8x-12 = - 6x+4

    Add 8x to each side

    -8x-12 + 8x = - 6x+4+8x

    -12 = 2x+4

    Subtract 4 from each side

    -12-4 = 2x+4-4

    -16 = 2x

    Divide each side by 2

    -16/2 = 2x/2

    -8 = x
