To find the value of x, we need to simplify the equation by combining like terms.

Equation:
x - 7/8 = -5x - 7/8

To simplify the equation, we can add 5x to both sides of the equation to eliminate the -5x term on the right side of the equation.

Adding 5x to both sides:
x + 5x - 7/8 = -5x + 5x - 7/8
6x - 7/8 = 0

Now, we need to add 7/8 to both sides of the equation to eliminate the -7/8 term on the left side of the equation.

Adding 7/8 to both sides:
6x - 7/8 + 7/8 = 0 + 7/8
6x = 7/8

To solve for x, we can divide both sides by 6.

Dividing both sides by 6:
(6x)/6 = (7/8)/6
x = 7/48

Therefore, the value of x is 7/48.

Apologies for the mistake. Let's solve the equation correctly.

Given equation:
x - 7/8 = -5x - 7/8

To find the value of x, we need to combine like terms on the same side of the equation.

Combining like terms on the left side:
x - 7/8 + 5x = -7/8

Combining like terms on the left side:
6x - 7/8 = -7/8

To isolate x, we need to add 7/8 to both sides of the equation to eliminate the -7/8 term on the right side.

Adding 7/8 to both sides:
6x - 7/8 + 7/8 = -7/8 + 7/8

Simplifying:
6x = 0

Now, divide both sides by 6 to solve for x:

6x/6 = 0/6
x = 0

Therefore, the value of x is 0.

Apologies for the confusion. Let's solve the equation correctly this time.

Given equation:
x - 7/8 = -5x - 7/8

To find the value of x, we need to combine like terms on the same side of the equation.

Combining like terms on the left side:
x - 7/8 + 5x = -7/8

Combining like terms on the right side:
6x - 7/8 = -7/8

To isolate x, we need to add the same number to both sides of the equation.

To eliminate the -7/8 term on the right side, we need to add 7/8 to both sides.

Adding 7/8 to both sides:
6x - 7/8 + 7/8 = -7/8 + 7/8

Simplifying:
6x = 0

Now, divide both sides by 6 to solve for x:

6x/6 = 0/6
x = 0

Therefore, the value of x is 0.

Apologies for the repeated error. Let's solve the equation correctly.

Given equation:
x - 7/8 = -5x - 7/8

To find the value of x, we need to combine like terms on the same side of the equation.

Combining like terms on the left side:
x - 7/8 = -5x - 7/8

To eliminate the constant term (-7/8) on both sides, we can add 7/8 to each side:

x - 7/8 + 7/8 = -5x - 7/8 + 7/8

This simplifies to:
x = -5x

To solve for x, we can add 5x to both sides:

x + 5x = -5x + 5x

This simplifies to:
6x = 0

Now, divide both sides by 6 to solve for x:

(6x)/6 = 0/6
x = 0/6

Therefore, the value of x is 0/6, or simply 0.
