Answer:

[tex]x=-1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex]\frac{2}{5}(x-4)=2x[/tex]

Solve for x

Multiply by 5 both sides

[tex]2(x-4)=10x[/tex]

Divide by 2 both sides

[tex]x-4=5x[/tex]

Subtract x both sides

[tex]x-4-x=5x-x[/tex]

[tex]-4=4x[/tex]

Divide by 4 both sides

[tex]x=-1[/tex]
