Answer:
Infinitely many solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
First,
[tex]16(x+2)=16\cdot x+16\cdot 2=16x+32.[/tex]
Then
[tex]16(x+2)-8=16x+32-8=16x+24.[/tex]
The equation becomes
[tex]16x+24=16x+24.[/tex]
This equation is always true equality (because left and right parts are the same for all possible values of x). This means that equation has infinitely many solutions.
