Full solution

Q. 8(6+x)=112 8(-6+x)=-112
  1. Distribute 88: Distribute 88 to both terms inside the parentheses.\newline8×6+8×x=1128 \times -6 + 8 \times x = -112
  2. Simplify multiplication: Simplify the multiplication.\newline48+8x=112-48 + 8x = -112
  3. Add 4848: Add 4848 to both sides to isolate the term with xx.\newline48+48+8x=112+48-48 + 48 + 8x = -112 + 48
  4. Simplify both sides: Simplify both sides. 8x=648x = -64
  5. Divide by 88: Divide both sides by 88 to solve for x.\newline8x8=648\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{-64}{8}
  6. Divide by 88: Divide both sides by 88 to solve for xx.8x8=648\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{-64}{8} Simplify the division.x=8x = -8
