4x + 8=4
4x + 8 - 8 = 4 - 8
4x = - 4
4x / 4 = - 4 / 4
x = - 4 / 4
x = - 1

here
4x+8=4
4x= -8+4 [put the constant term into the right]
4x= -4
x= -1 [as 4=/=0,so we can divide by 4]

4x+8=4
4x=4-8 (bring 8 over to the right hand side, so positive becomes negative)
4x= -4
x= -1 (divide the whole equation by 4)

You subtract 8 from both sides, which is -4. Then divide 4 [the one attached to x] from both sides to make x by itself, which will be
4x + 8 = 4
4x = -4
x = -1

first, move 8 to the right side:
4x=4-8 (remember, moving means the opposite, positive become negative, and negative become positive)
4x=-4
x=-4/4
and x=-1
