Answer:

x= -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

first distribute on both sides

8x -8 = -2x -16

isolate x on one side

10x = -8

x = -8/10

you can simplify that fraction to get

x= -4/5

8 ( x - 1) = -2 ( x + 8)
8x - 8 = -2 ( x + 8)
Distribute ^
Distribute again
8x - 8 = -2 (x + 8)
8x - 8 = -2x -16
Add 8 to both sides of the equation
X = -4/5
