8-(4x-3)=19
8-4x+3=19
-4x+11=19
-4x+11-11=19-11[subtracting 11 from both sides]
-4x=8
-4x/-4=8/-4[dividing both sides by -4]
x= -2 ans

8 – (4x – 3) = 19
8-4x+3 = 19
11 - 4x = 19
-4x = 8
x = 8/-4 = -2

8 - 4x + 3 = 19
- 4x = 19 - 8 - 3
- 4x = 8
x = - (8/4) = - 2

8 - (4x - 3) = 19
First, multiply your -1 through to eliminate the parenthesis.
8 - 4x - (-3) = 19
8 - 4x + 3 = 19
Then, get terms with x on one side and all other terms on the other side of the equals sign. (Remember if the term swaps sides, it swaps signs.)
8 + 3 - 19 = 4x
-8 = 4x
Divide both sides by 4.
-8/4 = 4x/4
-2 = x

8-(4x-3)=19
--> -(4x-3)= 11
--> (4x-3) = -11
--> 4x = -8
--> x = -2
