Hey there!

Let's solve this equation!

Step 1:


\bold{8x+(-7)=-55}


\bold{8x-7=-55}

Step 2:


\bold{8x-7+7=-55+7}


\bold{8x=-48}

Step 3:


\bold{x=-6}}

Hence, the answer is


\boxed{\boxed{\bold{x=-6}}}

Hope everything is clear.

Let me know if you have any questions; if so, please comment.
