4x-24=7x+8
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by x-6.
4x-24-7x=8
Subtract 7x from both sides.
-3x-24=8
Combine 4x and -7x to get -3x.
-3x=8+24
Add 24 to both sides.
-3x=32

x=\frac{32}{-3}
Divide both sides by -3.
x=-\frac{32}{3}
Fraction \frac{32}{-3} can be rewritten as -\frac{32}{3} by extracting the negative sign.
