Answer:
x=2
Explanation:
ok so this is just a substitution problem.
we need to get the variable (x) by itself on one side.
4x+8=16. so, lets remove 8 from the left side, and whatever we do to one side also has to happen to the other.
4x+8=16
-8 -8
4x=8. So now, we want to get 4 separate from x, and the only thing we can do is divide.
4x=8
/4 /4
x=2. there you have it, x is 2.
