What is the solution set of the following equation? -8x + x + 15 = -7x + 12 Ø {1/7} {all reals}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Answer Choices?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok to solve this problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-8x+x+15=-7x+12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i tried b and c and they didnt work so yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I dont see your answer choices

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you repost the answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ø {1/7} {all reals}

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So there are 3 options correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok so to solve this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

haha why do you need answer choices ?? its a linear equation...combine like terms and get "x" by itself

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-8x+x-15= -7x+12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just want to make sure @dumbcow

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok so think of it like this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You want to keep x's on one side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and numbers on the other side.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I THINK ITS A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

BEACUSE I ALREADY PLUGGED IN B AND C AND THEY DIDNT WORK

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Did you keep x's on one side and numbers on the other?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes that is one way of doing it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Good job!

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

really you plugged in all real numbers ... :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I PUT ONE IN LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Give me a sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let me solve on paper

OpenStudy (anonymous):

who wants the medal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I want to verify if you are correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Also give it to dumbcow

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

There are no solutions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So about that I wanted to make sure you were correct
