$x = 6$ $x=6$

$4 x + 8 = 32$ $4x+8=32$

Isolate for $x$ $x$ . Start by subtracting $8$ $8$ from both sides of the equation.

$4 x + 8 - 8 = 32 - 8$ $4x+8 color(red)(-8) = 32 color(red)(-8)$

$4 x = 24$ $color(green)(4x=24)$

Divide both sides of the equation by $4$ $4$ .

$\frac{4 x}{4} = \frac{24}{4}$ $color(green)(4x)/color(blue)(4)=color(green)(24)/color(blue)(4)$

$x = 6$ $color(purple)(x=6)$
