Correct Answer :

Option A

8

Solution :

The correct answer is 8.


To find the value of x that satisfies the equation 7x+5=61, we need to isolate the variable x on one side of the equation.

Step 1: Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation.

Subtracting 5 from both sides maintains the equality and isolates the term containing x:

7x+5-5=61-5

7x=56


Step 2: Divide both sides by 7.

To solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of x, which is 7:

7x7=567

x=8


Thus, the value of x that satisfies the given equation is 8.
