The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
(7-10*x)-(8-8*x)+(10*x+6) = -8
Expand brackets in the left part
7-10*x-8+8*x+10*x+6 = -8
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
5 + 8*x = -8
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$8 x = -13$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 8
x = -13 / (8)
We get the answer: x = -13/8
