What number should be added to both sides of the equation x−7=1 to solve for the value of x ?(1 point)
The number that should be added to both sides of the equation x-7=1 to solve for the value of x is 7.
What is the solution of the equation x−7=1
To solve the equation x-7=1, you can isolate the variable x by adding 7 to both sides of the equation.
By doing so, you get x = 8. Therefore, the solution to the equation x-7=1 is x = 8.
What number should be added to both sides of the equation x − 7/8 = −5 to find the value of x ?(1 point)
To solve the equation x - 7/8 = -5 and find the value of x, we need to add 7/8 to both sides of the equation.
By doing so, we get x = -5 + 7/8. To add -5 and 7/8, we need to find a common denominator. The common denominator between 1 and 8 is 8, so we can rewrite -5 as -40/8.
After adding, we get x = -40/8 + 7/8, which simplifies to x = -33/8. Therefore, the value of x is -33/8.
not right
Apologies for the mistake. To find the value of x in the equation x - 7/8 = -5, we need to add 7/8 to both sides of the equation.
Adding 7/8 to both sides gives us:
x - 7/8 + 7/8 = -5 + 7/8
Simplifying, we have:
x = -5 + 7/8
To add -5 and 7/8, we need to find a common denominator. The common denominator between 1 and 8 is 8, so we can rewrite -5 as -40/8.
-5 can be expressed as -40/8, so we have:
x = -40/8 + 7/8
Now, we can combine the fractions with the same denominator:
x = (-40 + 7)/8
x = -33/8
Therefore, the value of x is -33/8.
wrong
Apologies once again for the mistake.
To find the value of x in the equation x - 7/8 = -5, we need to add 7/8 to both sides of the equation.
Adding 7/8 to both sides gives us:
x - 7/8 + 7/8 = -5 + 7/8
Simplifying, we have:
x = -5 + 7/8
To add -5 and 7/8, we need to find a common denominator. The common denominator between 1 and 8 is 8, so we can rewrite -5 as -40/8.
-5 can be expressed as -40/8, so we have:
x = -40/8 + 7/8
Now, we can combine the fractions with the same denominator:
x = (-40 + 7)/8
x = -33/8
Therefore, the value of x is -33/8.
What number should be added to both sides of the equation x − 7/8 = −5 to find the value of x ?
Apologies for the confusion. To solve the equation x - 7/8 = -5 and find the value of x, we need to add 7/8 to both sides of the equation.
Adding 7/8 to both sides gives us:
x - 7/8 + 7/8 = -5 + 7/8
Simplifying:
x = -5 + 7/8
To add -5 and 7/8, we need to find a common denominator. The common denominator between 1 and 8 is 8, so we can rewrite -5 as -40/8.
-5 can be expressed as -40/8, so we have:
x = -40/8 + 7/8
Now, we can combine the fractions with the same denominator:
x = (-40 + 7)/8
x = -33/8
Therefore, to find the value of x in the equation x - 7/8 = -5, we need to add 7/8 to both sides, resulting in x = -33/8.
What is the value of x in the equation x + 0.97 = −2 ?
To find the value of x in the equation x + 0.97 = -2, we need to isolate x by subtracting 0.97 from both sides of the equation.
x + 0.97 - 0.97 = -2 - 0.97
Simplifying, we have:
x = -2 - 0.97
To combine the numbers on the right side, we subtract:
x = -2 - 0.97
x = -2.97
Therefore, the value of x in the equation x + 0.97 = -2 is x = -2.97.
What is the solution of the equation x − 9/4 = −3/8 ?
To find the solution of the equation x - 9/4 = -3/8, we need to isolate x by adding 9/4 to both sides of the equation.
x - 9/4 + 9/4 = -3/8 + 9/4
Simplifying, we have:
x = -3/8 + 9/4
To combine the fractions on the right side, we need a common denominator, which is 8:
x = (-3/8)*(2/2) + (9/4)*(2/2)
Simplifying further:
x = -6/16 + 18/16
x = (18 - 6) / 16
x = 12/16
x = 3/4
Therefore, the solution of the equation x - 9/4 = -3/8 is x = 3/4.

To solve the value of x in the equation x + 11 = -17, we should subtract 11 from both sides of the equation.
Subtracting 11 from both sides gives us:
x + 11 - 11 = -17 - 11
Simplifying, we have:
x = -17 - 11
To combine the numbers on the right side, we have:
x = -28
Therefore, to solve for x in the equation x + 11 = -17, we should subtract 11 from both sides of the equation.

To find the solution of the equation x + 23 = 9, we need to isolate x by subtracting 23 from both sides of the equation.
x + 23 - 23 = 9 - 23
Simplifying, we have:
x = 9 - 23
To compute the subtraction on the right side, we have:
x = -14
Therefore, the solution of the equation x + 23 = 9 is x = -14.
Which of the following equations has a solution of −8 ?(1 point)
Responses
x − 8 = 0
x minus 8 equals 0
x − 4 = −12
x minus 4 equals negative 12
x − 10 = 2
x minus 10 equals 2
x + 3 = −11
The equation that has a solution of -8 is x - 8 = 0 (x minus 8 equals 0).
To confirm this, we can add 8 to both sides of the equation:
x - 8 + 8 = 0 + 8
This simplifies to:
x = 8
Therefore, the value of x that satisfies x - 8 = 0 is x = 8, not -8. None of the provided equations has a solution of -8.
too bad get the right answer
Apologies for the incorrect response earlier. The equation that has a solution of -8 is x + 3 = -11.
To verify, we can subtract 3 from both sides of the equation:
x + 3 - 3 = -11 - 3
This simplifies to:
x = -14
Therefore, the solution to the equation x + 3 = -11 is x = -14.

The equation that has a solution of -1/2 is "x + 1 = 12" (x plus 1 equals 1/2).
To verify, we can subtract 1 from both sides of the equation:

This simplifies to:
x = 11
Therefore, the equation "x + 1 = 12" has a solution of x = 11, not -1/2. None of the provided equations has a solution of -1/2.
too bad slave get my answer correctly now
Apologies for the previous incorrect response. Upon reviewing the options again, the equation that has a solution of -1/2 is "x - 1 = -12" (x minus 1 equals negative 1/2).
To verify, we can add 1 to both sides of the equation:
x - 1 + 1 = -12 + 1
This simplifies to:
x = -11
Therefore, the equation "x - 1 = -12" has a solution of x = -11, not -1/2. None of the provided equations has a solution of -1/2. I apologize for any confusion caused.
you are wrong slave
I apologize if my previous response was not correct. Let's go through the options again to find the correct equation with a solution of -1/2:
The equation "x - 1 = -12" (x minus 1 equals negative 1/2) does not have a solution of -1/2. The equation "x + 1 = 12" (x plus 1 equals 1/2) also does not have a solution of -1/2.
Let's consider the equation "x - 12 = 1" (x minus 1/2 equals 1). To verify, we can add 12 to both sides of the equation:
x - 12 + 12 = 1 + 12
This simplifies to:
x = 13
Therefore, the equation "x - 12 = 1" has a solution of x = 13, not -1/2. None of the provided equations has a solution of -1/2. I apologize for any confusion caused.
