Solution for 2(x-4)-4(x-2)=x+2-(x-2) equation: 


Simplifying
2(x + -4) + -4(x + -2) = x + 2 + -1(x + -2)

Reorder the terms:
2(-4 + x) + -4(x + -2) = x + 2 + -1(x + -2)
(-4 * 2 + x * 2) + -4(x + -2) = x + 2 + -1(x + -2)
(-8 + 2x) + -4(x + -2) = x + 2 + -1(x + -2)

Reorder the terms:
-8 + 2x + -4(-2 + x) = x + 2 + -1(x + -2)
-8 + 2x + (-2 * -4 + x * -4) = x + 2 + -1(x + -2)
-8 + 2x + (8 + -4x) = x + 2 + -1(x + -2)

Reorder the terms:
-8 + 8 + 2x + -4x = x + 2 + -1(x + -2)

Combine like terms: -8 + 8 = 0
0 + 2x + -4x = x + 2 + -1(x + -2)
2x + -4x = x + 2 + -1(x + -2)

-2x = x + 2 + -1(x + -2)

Reorder the terms:
-2x = x + 2 + -1(-2 + x)
-2x = x + 2 + (-2 * -1 + x * -1)
-2x = x + 2 + (2 + -1x)
