Select the correct choice below and fill in any answer boxes in your choice

Answer 1

In order to solve this equation, let's calculate the cross product of the fractions:

`\begin{gathered} (x)/(x+7)=(6)/(5) \\ 5x=6(x+7) \\ 5x=6x+42 \\ 5x-6x=42 \\ -x=42 \\ x=-42 \end{gathered}`

So the correct option is A.

The solution set is {-42}
