For the equation -24 = 6 + (-3x):
1. Combine like terms: -24 = 6 - 3x
2. Subtract 6 from both sides: -30 = -3x
3. Divide by -3 to solve for x: x = 10
Since the solution x = 10 is greater than 0, the solution is Greater than 0.
For the equation 9x - 8 = -8:
1. Add 8 to both sides: 9x = 0
2. Divide by 9 to solve for x: x = 0
Since the solution x = 0 is equal to 0, the solution is Equal to 0.
For the equation x/8 + 7 = -9:
1. Subtract 7 from both sides: x/8 = -16
2. Multiply by 8 to solve for x: x = -128
Since the solution x = -128 is less than 0, the solution is Less than 0.
