Question

-6+8x=-38
What is the answer and explain how you got it step by step

Answer 1

-6 +8x = -38
8x = -32
x = -4
I did this by first adding 6 to both sides to get 8x by itself. I then divided by 8 to get x by itself. I remembered to use the - - + rule (Two negatives make a positive, a positive and a negative make a negative). Hope this helps!

Answer 2

-6+8x=-38 
move -6 to the right of the exppression 
it become 8 * x -6=-38
8* x -6+38=0
8* x -6 +32=0
Added fractions or integers together 
It becomes 8*x +32=0
 8*x+32=0
Solved linear equation 8*x+32=0 equivalent to 8*x+32 =0 
it becomes 0=0
