Answer:

x = 1

Explanation:

-8(1+4x)+7x=-25-8x (Given)

-8 + -32x + 7x = -25 - 8x (Distribute)\

-8 + -25x = -25 - 8x (Combine like terms)

-17x = -17 (Move variables(x) to the left and constants to the right)

x = 1 (Divide) (the answer is positive because when you divide a negative number by a negative number it turns positive)
