Question

Solution of x + 7 - 8x = 0 is​

Answer 1

x+7-8x=0

7x+7=0

7x=-7

x=-7/7

x=1

Answer 2

X + 7 - 8x = 0

- 8x+7 = 0

Subtract 7 from both sides of the equation :

- 8x = -7

Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : 8x = 7

Divide both sides of the equation by 8:

x = 7/8 = 0.875

Two solutions were found :

x = 7/8 = 0.875

x = 0
