Question

7What are the solutions to the equation x--=6?ХO x= -7 and x = 1O x= -6 and x = -1O x= -1 and x = 7O x= 1 and x = 6

Answer 1

We will have the following:

*We test each scenario, that is:

** x = -7 & x = 1:

`(7)-(7)/(7)=6\Rightarrow6=6`

&

`(1)-(7)/(1)=6\Rightarrow-6\\e6`

So, the first option is not.

** x = -6 & x = -1:

`(-6)-(7)/(-6)=6\Rightarrow-(29)/(6)\\e6`

So, the second option is not.

** x = -1 & x = 7:

`-1-(7)/(-1)=6\Rightarrow6=6`

&

`7-(7)/(7)=6\Rightarrow6=6`

So, the third option is the solution.
