x=0 .

−2(8+8x)+7x=−7x+2(x−8)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2(8+8x)+7x=−7x+2(x−8)

(−2)(8)+(−2)(8x)+7x=−7x+(2)(x)+(2)(−8)(Distribute)

−16+−16x+7x=−7x+2x+−16

(−16x+7x)+(−16)=(−7x+2x)+(−16)(Combine Like Terms)

−9x+−16=−5x+−16

−9x−16=−5x−16

Step 2: Add 5x to both sides.

−9x−16+5x=−5x−16+5x

−4x−16=−16

Step 3: Add 16 to both sides.

−4x−16+16=−16+16

−4x=0

Step 4: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x /−4 = 0 /−4

x=0
