To solve for the value of x in the equation x - 7 = 1, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation.
To do this, we can add 7 to both sides of the equation:
(x - 7) + 7 = 1 + 7
Simplifying, we have:
x = 8
Therefore, the number that should be added to both sides of the equation is 7.
What number should be added to both sides of the equation x - 7= 1 to solve for the value of x
