What number should be added to both sides of the equation x − 7/8 = −5 to find the value of x ?
To find the value of x, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation. To do this, we can add the same number to both sides of the equation.
Adding the same number to both sides of the equation ensures that the equation remains balanced.
In this case, we want to add a number that will cancel out the -7/8 on the left side and simplify the right side of the equation.
The number that should be added to cancel out -7/8 is +7/8.
Adding +7/8 to both sides of the equation, we get:
x - 7/8 + 7/8 = -5 + 7/8
This simplifies to:
x = -5 + 7/8
Therefore, the value of x is -5 + 7/8.
no i need an answer add that
Apologies for the confusion.
To find the value of x, we need to add the same number to both sides of the equation x - 7/8 = -5.
Adding 7/8 to both sides of the equation, we get:
x - 7/8 + 7/8 = -5 + 7/8
Simplifying, we have:
x = -5 + 7/8
Combining like terms, we find:
x = -40/8 + 7/8
x = -33/8
Therefore, the value of x is -33/8.
wrong
Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct it.
To find the value of x, we need to add the same number to both sides of the equation x - 7/8 = -5.
Adding 7/8 to both sides of the equation, we get:
x - 7/8 + 7/8 = -5 + 7/8
Simplifying, we have:
x = -5 + 7/8
To combine the whole number -5 with the fraction 7/8, we need a common denominator:
x = -5 * 8/8 + 7/8
x = -40/8 + 7/8
Combining like terms, we have:
x = (-40 + 7)/8
x = -33/8
Therefore, the value of x is -33/8.
are you sure case my test says that is wrong
Apologies for the confusion earlier. Let's reevaluate the problem.
Starting equation: x - 7/8 = -5
To find the value of x, we need to add the same number to both sides of the equation. In this case, we want to cancel out the -7/8 on the left side and simplify the right side of the equation.
To cancel out -7/8, we need to add +7/8 to both sides of the equation:
x - 7/8 + 7/8 = -5 + 7/8
Simplifying, we have:
x = -5 + 7/8
To combine -5 with 7/8, we need a common denominator:
x = -5 * 8/8 + 7/8
x = -40/8 + 7/8
Combining like terms, we have:
x = (-40 + 7)/8
x = -33/8
Therefore, the value of x is -33/8. This is the correct answer.

REDO IT AND LET ME PUT WHAT I WAaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnttt to put REDO IT
Apologies for the confusion. Please go ahead and provide the desired number to be added to both sides of the equation, so that I can redo the calculation accordingly.

Combining like terms, we have:
x = (-40 + 7)/8
x = -33/8
Therefore, the value of x is -33/8. This is the correct answer.
you keep puting that damp answer plsssssssssss you act soooo slow plsssss put the ggg answer BECAUSE THAT IS WORNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG THUMMMPSSS DOWNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
