Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is:   x = - 1 / 8

Step-by-step explanation:

                                           8( 1 - 5x ) = 13

                                            8 - 40x = 13

                                             - 40x = 13 - 8

                                             - 40x = 5

                                               x = - 5 / 40

                                               x = - 1 / 8
