We can isolate the value of x by solving each equation:

A: x + 0.875 = 1.5
Subtracting 0.875 from both sides of the equation, we get:
x = 1.5 - 0.875
x = 0.625

B: x - 7/8 = -3/2
Adding 7/8 to both sides of the equation, we get:
x = -3/2 + 7/8
x = -12/8 + 7/8
x = -5/8

C: x - 0.025 = 0.6
Adding 0.025 to both sides of the equation, we get:
x = 0.6 + 0.025
x = 0.625

D: x + 9/8 = 7/4
Subtracting 9/8 from both sides of the equation, we get:
x = 7/4 - 9/8
x = 14/8 - 9/8
x = 5/8

The equations A, C, and D all have the same value of x = 0.625, while equation B has a different value of x = -5/8.

Therefore, the equation B: x - 7/8 = -3/2 has a different value of x than the others.
