-4x-4=-4(x+2) \\
-4x-4=-4x-8 \\
-4\neq-8\Longrightarrow x\notin\mathbb{R}

The answer is D. No solution because we got false equivalency.
Hope this helps.

Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 4x - 4 = - 4(x + 2) ← distribute right side
- 4x - 4 = - 4x - 8 ( add 4 to both sides )
- 4x = - 4x - 4 ( add 4x to both sides )
0 = - 4 ← not possible
Hence the equation has no solution → D
