Because 8 does not = 7, there is no solution. You write No Sol.
Alternatively if you simplify an equation to x = x, that would be All Solutions (any number substituted for x satisfies the equation)

Wrong!
8x = 7x DOES have a solution and that is x = 0
-8x+7 = -7x-2 -8x = -7x-2-7 -8x=-7x-9 -8x+7x=-9 -1x=-9 x=-9/-1 x=9
8x=7x-7 x=-7
7x+x = 8x
the empty set.
8x-2 = -9+7x8x-7x = -9+2x=-7
3x + 17 + 5x = 7x + 10Combine (add) the 'x'-terms on the left side of the equation:8x + 17 = 7x + 10Subtract 17 from each side:8x = 7x - 7Subtract 7x from each side:x = -7
I'll show work. X2-8x-4=0. X2-8x=4. X-8x=2. -7x=2. X=-(2/7).
x = 4 You have to add the 8x and 7x to get 15x and then divide 60 by 15 to get x by itself.
28=8x+12-7x 28=8x-7x+12 28=x+12 28-12=x+12-12 16=x
There are only one solution.8x - 15x = 0Combine the 'like' terms on the left side of the equation:-7x = 0Divide each side by -7 :x = 0This are the only solution to the equation.
X = -3
-3.........
