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

A) x=-7 and x = 1

B) x=-6 and x = - 1

C) x = - 1 and x = 7

D) x = 1 and x = 6

Answer:none of these.

Try to substitute any of the given values for x and the result is false

Step-by-step explanation:

Try x=1. 1-7 - 6. Divide that by 1 and you get - 6 = 6. False!

To solve the given equation, multiply sides by x to cancel the denominator. You get x-7 = 6x then subtract x from both sides to get - 7=5x. Divide both sides by 5 to get x = - 7/5

But if the original equation has an x^2 somewhere, there will be a different set of solutions.

x=-1 and x=7
