    x=-44

    Step-by-step explanation:

    3/4 (1/4x+8) - (1/2x+2) = 3/8 (4-x) - 1/4

    3/16x+24/4-1/2x-2=12/8-3/8x-1/4

    3/16x+6-1/2x-2=3/2-3/8x-1/4

    3/16x-1/2x+4=3/2-3/8x-1/4

    -5/16x+4=-3/8x+5/4

    Add 3/8x to both sides

    -5/16x+4+3/8x=-3/8x+5/4+3/8x

    1/16x+4=5/4

    Subtract 4 from both sides

    1/16x+4-4=5/4-4

    1/16x=-11/4

    Multiply both sides by 16

    1/16x (16) = -11/4 (16)

    x=-44
