Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 8 = 7x

(x - 8)(x + 1)=0

x - 8= 0   x + 1=0

x=8           x= -1

8 is the positive solution

Help pls!!!how to solve it​
Mariana [72]

Answer:

q = 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we distribute.

16q - 10 = 4q

Then, we combine like terms.

-10 = 4q - 16q

-10 = -12q

Finally, we divide -12 on both sides.

5/6 = q, or q = 5/6

Hope this helps ^^
