Answer:

x = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Combine like terms

7 + -7x + -8 - 9x + 5

7 - 7x - 8 - 9x + 5

4 - 16x

Step 2:  Solve for x

4 - 16x - 4 = 0 - 4

-16x/-16 = -4/-16

x = 4/16

x = 1/4

Answer: x = 1/4

To simplify the expression 7 + -7x + -8 - 9x + 5 we can combine like terms.

= (7 - 8 + 5) + (-7x - 9x)

= 4 - 16x

Put the equation in standard form. (ax^2 + bx + c)

-16x + 4

Best of Luck!
