I hope help you

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 2(x + 3) = 8 \\ x + 3 = 8 + 2 \\ x + 3 = 10 \\ x = 10 - 3 \\ = 7$

Answer 2

Answer:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

-2(x+3)=8

(-2)(x)+(-2)(3)=8(DISTRIBUTIVE)

-2x+-6=8

-2x-6=8

Step 2:Add 6 to both sides.

-2x-6+6=8+6

-2x=14

Step 3:Divide both sides by -2.

-2x/-2=14/-2

x=(-7)
