0.5x = 2 * 0.5(-8000 + x)

Multiply 2 * 0.5
0.5x = 1(-8000 + x)
0.5x = (-8000 * 1 + x * 1)
0.5x = (-8000 + 1x)

Solving
0.5x = -8000 + 1x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-1x' to each side of the equation.
0.5x + -1x = -8000 + 1x + -1x

Combine like terms: 0.5x + -1x = -0.5x
-0.5x = -8000 + 1x + -1x

Combine like terms: 1x + -1x = 0
-0.5x = -8000 + 0
-0.5x = -8000

Divide each side by '-0.5'.
x = 16000

Simplifying
x = 16000
