No Solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2(4x−4)+8x=2(8x−3)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2(4x−4)+8x=2(8x−3)

(2)(4x)+(2)(−4)+8x=(2)(8x)+(2)(−3)(Distribute)

8x+−8+8x=16x+−6

(8x+8x)+(−8)=16x−6(Combine Like Terms)

16x+−8=16x−6

16x−8=16x−6

Step 2: Subtract 16x from both sides.

16x−8−16x=16x−6−16x

−8=−6

Step 3: Add 8 to both sides.

−8+8=−6+8

0=2
