I believe your answer is:  

x = 5

Here’s why:  

⸻⸻⸻⸻

[tex]7x - 8(-x+7)=-16+7\\\--------------\\\rightarrow7x +8x - 56 =-16 + 7x\\\\\rightarrow 15x -56 = 7x - 16\\\\\rightarrow 15x - 7x - 56 = 7x - 7x - 16\\\\\rightarrow 8x - 56 =-16\\\\\rightarrow 8x - 56 + 56 = -16 + 56\\\\\rightarrow 8x = 40\\\\\rightarrow\frac{8x=40}{8}\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{x = 5}[/tex]
