2x+4-8\left(x-3\right)=20-2x
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4, the least common multiple of 4,2.
2x+4-8x+24=20-2x
Use the distributive property to multiply -8 by x-3.
-6x+4+24=20-2x
Combine 2x and -8x to get -6x.
-6x+28=20-2x
Add 4 and 24 to get 28.
-6x+28+2x=20
Add 2x to both sides.
-4x+28=20
Combine -6x and 2x to get -4x.
-4x=20-28
Subtract 28 from both sides.
-4x=-8
Subtract 28 from 20 to get -8.
x=\frac{-8}{-4}
Divide both sides by -4.
x=2
Divide -8 by -4 to get 2.
