Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf x = -2.5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

4x + 2 = -8

Subtract 2 to both sides

4x = -8 - 2

4x = -10

Divide 4 to both sides

x = -10/4

x = -2.5

[tex]\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]

Answer:

  • x = -5/2
  • x = -2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 2 = - 8

Subtract 2 from both sides,

  • 4x = - 8 - 2

Subtract 2 from - 8 = - 10,

  • 4x= -10

Divide both sides by 4,

  • 4x/4 = -10/4
  • x = - 5/ 2 or x = - 2.5
