The work appears to involve evaluating a limit:
1. Start with the expression:
\[
\lim_{{x \to 6}} \frac{{8 - (8x / (x+2) + 5)}}{{x - 6}}
\]
2. Begin simplifying the numerator:
\[
8 - \left( \frac{{8x}}{{x+2}} + 5 \right) = \frac{{8(x+2)}}{{x+2}} - \frac{{8x}}{{x+2}} - \frac{{5(x+2)}}{{x+2}}
\]
3. Simplifying further, combine the fractions:
\[
\frac{{8x + 16 - 8x - 5x - 10}}{{x+2}} = \frac{{3x + 6}}{{x+2}}
\]
4. Substitute into the overall expression:
\[
\lim_{{x \to 6}} \frac{{(3x + 6)/(x+2)}}{{x - 6}}
\]
5. Simplify and evaluate the limit:
\[
\lim_{{x \to 6}} \frac{{3x + 6}}{{(x+2)(x-6)}}
\]
This expression needs further factorization or approaches, such as using L'Hôpital's Rule if an indeterminate form like \(0/0\) is present when \(x = 6\). Alternatively, recognition of a common factor in the numerator and the denominator might allow for simpler evaluation.
