    Answer: - 8.5625

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Use the distributive property ... ex: 8 (x+1) = 8x+1 (by multiplying both by 8)

    8x+1-31x-124=14-7x

    Combine like variables

    -23x-123=14-7x

    Bring like variables to the same side of the equation by changing the sign (+,-)

    -16x=137

    Divide - 16 by both sides

    x=-8.5625
