Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify.

-8 - x = x - 4x

Step 2: Solve for x

  1. Simplify [Combine like terms]:                                                                         -8 - x = -3x
  2. [Addition Property of Equality] Add x on both sides:                                     -8 = -2x
  3. [Division Property of Equality] Divide -2 on both sides:                                4 = x
  4. Rewrite:                                                                                                             x = 4
