Answer:
I ran away from the plantation and all who I knew there. I lived in the fields and in the woods. Even in caves. Sometimes I slept up in the tree branches. Or in a hay pile. I couldn’t get across the river now, it was watched so closely.
Finally, I did get across. Late one night me and my wife went. I had gone back to the plantation to get her. Mr. Rankins had him a bell by this time, along with the light. We were rowin and rowin. We could see the light and hear that bell, but it seemed we weren't getting any closer. It took forever, it seemed. That was because we were so scared and it was so dark and we knew we could get caught and never get gone.

Answer:
x < -3 is the solution for the given inequality - 8 > 8x + 16.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, the given inequality is - 8 > 8x + 16
Now, we know if equal (positives) are added, subtracted multiplied or divided on both sides of in equality, the signs remain unchanged.
⇒ - 8 > 8x + 16 is equivalent to - 8 + 8 > 8x + 16 + 8
or, 0 > 8x + 24
⇔ -8x > 8x + 24 - 8x
⇔ -8 x > 24
or, (REVERSE SIGN as dividing by a a negative number)
or, x < -3
or, x < -3 is the solution for the given inequality.
