    10x+8=8x - (-16)

    10x+8=8x+16

    move 8x to the other side

    sign changes from + 8x to - 8x

    10x-8x+8=8x-8x+16 (combine like terms)

    2x+8=16

    move 8 to the other side

    2x+8-8=16-8

    2x=8

    divide both sides by 2 to get x by itself

    2x/2=8/2

    answer;

    x=4
