The first step in solving this equation is to isolate the variable term.
To do this, we can begin by subtracting 2 from both sides of the equation:
-3 - 2 = x/4 + 2 - 2
-5 = x/4
Now, we want to isolate x by multiplying both sides of the equation by 4:
-5 * 4 = x/4 * 4
-20 = x
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = -20.
Identity the first step in solving this equation for x:-3=x/4+2.
