Solve for d -2d-8=8+8+4d

$- 2 d - 8 = 8 + 8 + 4 d$

Add $8$ and $8$ .

$- 2 d - 8 = 16 + 4 d$

Move all terms containing $d$ to the left side of the equation.

Subtract $4 d$ from both sides of the equation.

$- 2 d - 8 - 4 d = 16$

Subtract $4 d$ from $- 2 d$ .

$- 6 d - 8 = 16$

Move all terms not containing $d$ to the right side of the equation.

Add $8$ to both sides of the equation.

$- 6 d = 16 + 8$

Add $16$ and $8$ .

$- 6 d = 24$

Divide each term in $- 6 d = 24$ by $- 6$ and simplify.

Divide each term in $- 6 d = 24$ by $- 6$ .

$\frac{- 6 d}{- 6} = \frac{24}{- 6}$

Simplify the left side.

Cancel the common factor of $- 6$ .

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{- 6 d}{- 6} = \frac{24}{- 6}$

Divide $d$ by $1$ .

$d = \frac{24}{- 6}$

Simplify the right side.

Divide $24$ by $- 6$ .

$d = - 4$
