Answer:

x = 1.1

Explanation:

We have, 8(2x-3)-2=2-8(3x-2)

Simplifying the equation gives,

16x - 24 - 2 = 2 - 24x + 16

i.e. 16x - 26 = -24x + 18

Taking same terms on one side, we get,

16x + 24x = 18 + 26

i.e. 40x = 44

i.e. x =
(44)/(40)

i.e. x =
(11)/(10)

i.e. x = 1.1

Thus, the value of x is 1.1.
