Step-by-step explanation:
X + 7x = 56 + 8
Simplifying x + 7x = 56 + 8 Combine like terms: x + 7x = 8x 8x = 56 + 8 Combine like terms: 56 + 8 = 64 8x = 64 Solving 8x = 64 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Divide each side by '8'. x = 8 Simplifying x = 8
