Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: -8x-3x-6=4-x You get this by simplifying the part of the question inside the parenthesis. Once that is complete, the parenthesis are no longer needed.

Next You want to combine like terms. After doing so you get:

-11x-6=4-x

put variables on one side and numbers on other to get:

-11x +x = 4+6

Carry out function on each side: To get:

-10x=10.

Divide each side by negative 10 to solve for x:

-10x/-10 =10/-10

x=10/-10 remember that a negative and a positive when dividing will result in negative number so your answer should be negative and it is.

x= -1
