(-1/3)x+1=-7

Solution for (-1/3)x+1=-7 equation:

(-1/3)x+1=-7

We move all terms to the left:

(-1/3)x+1-(-7)=0


Domain of the equation: 3)x!=0

x!=0/1

x!=0

x∈R


We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

(-1/3)x+8=0

We multiply parentheses

-1x^2+8=0

a = -1; b = 0; c = +8;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 02-4·(-1)·8
Δ = 32
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{32}=\sqrt{16*2}=\sqrt{16}*\sqrt{2}=4\sqrt{2}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)-4\sqrt{2}}{2*-1}=\frac{0-4\sqrt{2}}{-2}
=-\frac{4\sqrt{2}}{-2}
=-\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{-1}
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(0)+4\sqrt{2}}{2*-1}=\frac{0+4\sqrt{2}}{-2}
=\frac{4\sqrt{2}}{-2}
=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{-1}
