The solution of the equation −8x+13=−19 is:
-8x+13 = -19
To isolate x, we will subtract 13 from both sides:
-8x = -19 - 13
-8x = -32
Next, we will divide both sides by -8:
x = -32 / -8
x = 4
Therefore, the solution is x = 4.

Apologies for the confusion in the previous response. Let's solve the equation −8x+13=−19 correctly:
To isolate x, we will subtract 13 from both sides:
−8x + 13 - 13 = -19 - 13
−8x = -32
Next, we will divide both sides by -8:
x = -32 / -8
x = 4
Therefore, the solution is x = 4.
So, the correct answer is 4.
