Question

$$ 1 \leftarrow \quad \begin{array}{c}	ext { Solve. Check your solution. } \ 6=x+7 \ x=\square\end{array} $$

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

To solve the equation $$6 = x + 7$$ and check the solution, follow these steps:

### Step 1: Solve for $$x$$

$$
\begin{align*}
6 &= x + 7 \
6 - 7 &= x \
-1 &= x
\end{align*}
$$

So, the solution is:
$$
x = -1
$$

### Step 2: Check the Solution

Substitute $$x = -1$$ back into the original equation to verify:

$$
\begin{align*}
6 &= (-1) + 7 \
6 &= 6
\end{align*}
$$

Since both sides of the equation are equal, the solution $$x = -1$$ is correct.

### Summary

$$
x = -1
$$
$$ x = -1 $$

\( 1 \leftarrow \quad \begin{array}{c}\text { Solve. Check your solution. } \\ 6=x+7 \\ x=\square\end{array} \)
