2(2 + 4x) = - 4 Show All work and solve for x
2(2+4x)=-4So you expand the brackets by multiplying everything inside by outside:4 + 8x = -4Then you move the 4 over next to -48x = -4 -4So it become 8x = -8 and then you divide 8 by -8 Which therefore gives you the answer of X = -1
x=(-1) Hope this helps!
