Answer:

Instead of moving the 3x to the opposite side of the equation they moved the 2x. And the correct answer is x=-6 not x=6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Student Work:

2(x + 4) – 8 = 3x+10-4

2x + 8–8 = 3x + 6

2x = 3x + 6

- 3x – 3x

X = 6

My work:

2(x+4)-8=3x+10-4

2x+8-8=3x+6

2x=3x+6

-x=6

x=-6
