Question

(1 point)
0 x= -18
• x=-10
0x=3
• x=-8

Answer 1

To solve the equation \(4x + 8 = 3x - 10\), follow these steps:

1. Subtract \(3x\) from both sides: \[ 4x - 3x + 8 = -10 \] which simplifies to: \[ x + 8 = -10 \]

2. Subtract 8 from both sides: \[ x = -10 - 8 \] which simplifies to: \[ x = -18 \]

Therefore, the solution is \(x = -18\).
