Question

8-4/6x-7=8

Answer 1

multiply each term by x, then collect similar terms and solve

Answer 2

i got 0

Answer 3

its no solution

Answer 4

Combine like terms:
-4/6x-1=8
-4/6x=7
Multiply each side by the multiplicative inverse of -4/6
you get:
x=-10.5

Answer 5

8x -4/6 -7x = 8x
-4/6 = 7x
x = -4/42 = - 2/21

Answer 6

But when substituting -10.5 for x, the equation checks out....or am I missing something?

Answer 7

Maybe I am or maybe I have misinterpreted your equation.
is your 4/6x really (4/6)x or 4/(6x), as I thought?

Answer 8

I read it as (4/6)x....

Answer 9

its no solution but im not for sure how it is how worked out. i put the equation in online

Answer 10

Answer 11

but was it "four sixths times x," or "four divided by the product of six and x??"

Answer 12

4 over 6x-7
