Let's solve the equation step-by-step:
Given equation: \[ -3x + 4 = -8 \]
Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides: \[ -3x + 4 - 4 = -8 - 4 \] This simplifies to: \[ -3x = -12 \]
Step 2: Divide both sides by -3: \[ \frac{-3x}{-3} = \frac{-12}{-3} \] This simplifies to: \[ x = 4 \]
Therefore, the solution is: \[ x = 4 \]
The correct option is:
