To solve the equation \(-8x + 13 = -19\), follow these steps:
-
Subtract 13 from both sides:
\(-8x + 13 - 13 = -19 - 13\)
This simplifies to:
\(-8x = -32\)
-
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.
