2(x + 2) + 32 = -4 solve for x

-20 hope it help

x = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x + 2) + 32 = -4

Distribute the 2 inside the parenthesis.

2x + 4 + 32 = -4

Add 4 and 32.

2x + 36 = -4

Subtract 36 from both sides.

2x = -40

Divide both sides by 2.

x = -20.

Proof:

2(x + 2) + 32 = -4

Substitute variable.

2(-20 + 2) + 32 = -4

Add inside parenthesis.

2(-18) + 32 = -4

Multiply 2 and -18.

-36 + 32 = -4

Add -36 and 32.

-4 = -4.
