-8x-\left(-3+2\right)-\left(-x\right)>-7+8x
Combine -9x and x to get -8x.
-8x-\left(-1\right)-\left(-x\right)>-7+8x
Add -3 and 2 to get -1.
-8x+1-\left(-x\right)>-7+8x
The opposite of -1 is 1.
-8x+1-\left(-x\right)-8x>-7
Subtract 8x from both sides.
-8x+1+x-8x>-7
Multiply -1 and -1 to get 1.
-7x+1-8x>-7
Combine -8x and x to get -7x.
-15x+1>-7
Combine -7x and -8x to get -15x.
-15x>-7-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-15x>-8
Subtract 1 from -7 to get -8.
x<\frac{-8}{-15}
Divide both sides by -15. Since -15 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x<\frac{8}{15}
