Add up the right-hand terms and divide by #8#. Answer: #10/3#

Explanation:

Find a common denominator on the right-hand side. In this case, it is #3#. This will leave you with

#-4/3 + 84/3 = 80/3#

Your equation will then be

#8x = 80/3#

Divide both sides by #8#, leaving you with

#x = 80/24#

which reduces to #10/3#.
