Solve 4x+4=3+x-2+8x+8

$$4 x + 4 = 3 + x - 2 + 8 x + 8$$

Solve for x

$$x=-1$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract 2 from 3 to get 1.

$$4x+4=1+x+8x+8$$

Combine x and 8x to get 9x.

$$4x+4=1+9x+8$$

Add 1 and 8 to get 9.

$$4x+4=9+9x$$

Subtract 9x from both sides.

$$4x+4-9x=9$$

Combine 4x and -9x to get -5x.

$$-5x+4=9$$

Subtract 4 from both sides.

$$-5x=9-4$$

Subtract 4 from 9 to get 5.

$$-5x=5$$

Divide both sides by -5.

$$x=\frac{5}{-5}$$

Divide 5 by -5 to get -1.

$$x=-1$$
