Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
1. You multiply 4 to both sides, which makes it 1:3.2
2. Multiply 10 to both sides, which makes it 10:32
3. Divide by 2, and the answer is 5:16, which is B.
Essentially, what you need to do is ensure that both sides cancel each other out to make 0 = 0
An example:
2(x + y) + 4 = (4x + 4y + 8)/2
2x + 2y + 4 = 2x + 2y + 4
0 = 0

For Part A, you need to input x=6 into the equation 8x + 8 = 56 to see if 6 is a solution of that equation. It'll be 8(6) + 8 = 56 -> 48 + 8 = 56 -> 56 = 56. Does 56 equal 56? Then yes, x = 6 is a solution of the equation 8x + 8 = 56.
For Part B, it changed the value of x from 6 to 9. It also states that the left side of the equation (left side of the equal sign) stays the same so it'll still be 8x + 8. You do what you did in Part A, but instead of inputting 6, you do 9. It'll be like this: 8(9) + 8. It's asking how the right side would change, but that's basically asking what the answer is. If you do the math correctly, it'd be 72+8, which would be 80. The right side would need to be 80 if the solution is now x = 9.
