To solve the equation -8x + 13 = -19, we need to isolate x.
First, we need to get x by itself, so we need to move the constant term to the other side of the equation by subtracting 13 from both sides:
-8x + 13 - 13 = -19 - 13
-8x = -32
Next, divide both sides by -8 to solve for x:
-8x/-8 = -32/-8
x = 4
Therefore, the solution to the equation -8x + 13 = -19 is x = 4, which corresponds to option C.
