Answer:


\boxed{x=13}

Explanation:

The given equation represents a straight line:


y+2=-(4)/(5)(x-8)

To find the missing value, we need to isolate the variable x as follows:


y+2=-(4)/(5)(x-8) \\ \\ \therefore (5)/(4)(y+2)=-(x-8) \\ \\ \therefore (5)/(4)(y+2)=-x+8 \\ \\ \therefore x=8-(5)/(4)(y+2)\\ \\ So: \\ \\ If \ y=-6 \ then: \\ \\ \boxed{x=13}
