Answer:
First use the distributive property.
2(4x) 2(-2) = 8(x) 8(-7)
You will get 8x - 4 = 8x - 56
This answer has no solutions since -4 does not equal -56.
Answer: no solution
Step-by-step explanation: So i'm guessing we're solving for x? no sweat
First Distribute the constants on the outside of the expression so 2(4x-2)=8(x-7) becomes 8x-4=8x-56 right now we have a problem. X is on both sides and we don't want that cause it complicates things so we want our variable x in this case on one side. if you subtract 8x from either side your left with no variable so there is no solution.
