You can check your solutions by putting in the values of s

s=? -1
then -1+7/(-1)=-1-7=-8 checks

s=? 7
then 7+7/7=7+1=8 doesnt check. Did you mean minus 7, I think that checks. Check my thinking.
My guess was adding -7 to 1 to get -8
Well if you add the recipricol perpendicular to the value of s, you shall have your answer.

No offence but it is really quite easy. Do you want my help?
Yes of course. Math is not my strongest subject.
