Question

What are the solutions to the equation x - 7/x = 6

Answer 1

The answer is C that is X=7 and X=-1

multiple x through the given equation to get rid of a fraction. It will be

${x}^{2} - 7 = 6x$

After that bring 6X to the LHS of the equation

so that it will look like the general equation that is

${x}^{2} - 6x - 7 = 0$

Use the quadratic formula (or any other approach to find the values of x

You will arrive at

$x = 7. - 1$
