f^{-1}x\left(8x+7\right)=8-9x
Multiply both sides of the equation by 8x+7.
8f^{-1}x^{2}+7f^{-1}x=8-9x
Use the distributive property to multiply f^{-1}x by 8x+7.
8\times \frac{1}{f}x^{2}+7\times \frac{1}{f}x=-9x+8
Reorder the terms.
8\times 1x^{2}+7\times 1x=-9xf+f\times 8
Variable f cannot be equal to 0 since division by zero is not defined. Multiply both sides of the equation by f.
8x^{2}+7x=-9xf+f\times 8
Do the multiplications.
-9xf+f\times 8=8x^{2}+7x
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
\left(-9x+8\right)f=8x^{2}+7x
Combine all terms containing f.
\left(8-9x\right)f=8x^{2}+7x
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{\left(8-9x\right)f}{8-9x}=\frac{x\left(8x+7\right)}{8-9x}
Divide both sides by -9x+8.
f=\frac{x\left(8x+7\right)}{8-9x}
Dividing by -9x+8 undoes the multiplication by -9x+8.
f=\frac{x\left(8x+7\right)}{8-9x}\text{, }f\neq 0
Variable f cannot be equal to 0.
