-4

1 answer

To solve the equation \(-8x + 13 = -19\), follow these steps:

  1. Subtract 13 from both sides:

    \(-8x + 13 - 13 = -19 - 13\)

    This simplifies to:

    \(-8x = -32\)

  2. Divide both sides by -8:

    \(x = \frac{-32}{-8}\)

    This simplifies to:

    \(x = 4\)

Thus, the solution of the equation is \(x = 4\).

The correct answer from the options provided is 4.
