#x=5/2#

Explanation:

Formatted Question: #1/4(4x+8)=3x-8+2x#

We can use the distributive property on the left-hand side and simplify the right-hand side by combining like-terms:
#x+2=5x-8#

Next, we can add #*# to both sides and subtract #x# from both sides:
#10=4x#

Now we solve the simple equation by dividing both sides by 4 to solve for #x#:
#x=5/2#
