Infinitely many solutions!

Step-by-step explanation:

Using PEMDAS rules, let's distribute the 8 to (x - 5)

Now the equation looks like: 8x - 40 + 38 = 8x - 2

We combine like terms, so -40 + 38 would be -2

Now the equation would look like 8x - 2 = 8x - 2

Let's add 2 on the other side to try and get x by itself

8x = 8x - 2 (+2) Which brings the equation to 8x = 8x

Technically speaking, you can stop here because the statement is true. No matter what x equals, the statement would be true. Therefore infinitely many solutions would be your answer. You can plug in any number for x and the equation would still be correct.
