Answer:
x = 39.5
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\dfrac{x}{8}-4=\dfrac{15}{16}\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 8}\\\\8\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\dfrac{x}{8\!\!\!\!\diagup_1}-(8)(4)=8\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\dfrac{15}{16\!\!\!\!\!\diagup_2}\\\\x-32=\dfrac{15}{2}\qquad\text{add 32 to both sides}\\\\x-32+32=7.5+32\\\\x=39.5[/tex]
