Sagot :

Answer:

Her solution is incorrect. The correct solution for the equation is x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Sasha solved the equation incorrectly.

The correct way to solve this equation would be:

8x = 56

Divide both sides by 8.

[tex]\frac{8x}{8}= \frac{56}{8}[/tex]

You would get x=7.

This equation has 1 solution.
