Answer: x=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Do 8(4) + 8(2x)=16 to use the distributive property. You should get 32+16x=16. Then, subtract 32 from both sides of the equation and you will get 16x=-16. Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 16 and you will get you answer, x=-1. Hope I helped.

8(4+2x)=16
= 32 + 16x = 16
= 32-32 +16x = 16-32
= 16x = -16
= 16x/16 = -16/16
= X = -1
So, in conclusion, X = -1

Check:
8(4 + 2(-1)) = 16
= 32 - 16
= 16
