Complete the third step to solve the equation.

        3 + 2x = -6x + 4

1.  Isolate the variable term on one side:     3 + 8x = 4

2.  Isolate the constant on the other side:     8x = 1

3. Solve for x: x =

1 answer

To solve for \( x \), we continue with step 3 given the equation from step 2:

\[ 8x = 1 \]

Now, divide both sides by 8:

\[ x = \frac{1}{8} \]

So the solution is:

\( x = \frac{1}{8} \)
