The value of x is –7.
Solution:
Given expression:
Let us factor 
.
Substitute this in the fraction.
To make the denominator same, multiply and divide the first term by (x +1).
Denominators are same, you can add the fractions.
Cancel the common term in the numerator and denominator.
Multiply the fractions.
The expression is simplified to one rational expression.
Suppose the expression is equal to 0.
Do cross multiplication.
Any number or variable multiplied by 0 gives 0.
Subtract 7 from both sides of the equation.
x = –7
The value of x is –7.
You are given a table in which each row represents the coordinates of points. For example, in the first line, we have x=-7 and y=5. Work through the four given equations, one at a time, subbing -7 for x and 5 for y; is the equation still true? If yes, then you have found the correct answer. B is the exception; I'd suggest you check out equations A, C and D first, before focusing on B.
Example: D: (5)-5 = 2((-7) + 7) leads to 0 = 0. Is that true? If so, D is likely the correct answer.

Answer:
Option 1: CD is a perpendicular bisector of AB
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us find out the slopes of various line segments and the Distances and then we will draw the conclusions accordingly.
Formula to find slope
Formula to Find Distance between two points
mAB ( represents , Slope of AB )
1. 
2. 
3. 
4. 
5. 
mAC = mBC , and C is common point , hence these three are collinear points making a straight line whole slope is 
Hence CD ⊥ AB
Also
From Point 4 and point 5 above , we see that
AC = CB
Hence CD bisect AB at C, also CD ⊥ AB
There fore
CD is a perpendicular bisector of AB
Therefor option 1 is true
