The solution for the equation x+56=7 is x = -49

To solve the equation x + 56 = 7, you'll want to isolate the variable \(x\). Begin by subtracting 56 from both sides of the equation:

x + 56 - 56 = 7 - 56

Simplifying both sides, you get:

x = -49

So, the solution to the equation is x = -49.

However, none of the provided answer choices exactly match this solution.

If we evaluate the options, we can see that the closest match is:

C. x = -8 and x = 18

This suggests a discrepancy between the equation solution and the provided answer choices.
