Answer 1

Let's solve the equation step by step.

The equation is:

\[ -3x + 4 = -8 \]

Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides to isolate the term with \( x \).

\[ -3x + 4 - 4 = -8 - 4 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ -3x = -12 \]

Step 2: Divide both sides by -3.

\[ x = \frac{-12}{-3} \]

This simplifies to:

\[ x = 4 \]

Solution:

The value of \( x \) is:

\[ 4 \]

So, the final responses are:

• Step 1: \( -3x = -12 \)
• Step 2: \( x = 4 \)
• Solution: \( 4 \)
