Those are really conceptual complexes.
But it doesn't matter.
Let's start with the obvious, "simple" concept of "9" .
Which can refer to nine *abstract entities*, *trees*, *snakes*, *boxes* -
or a "broken nine", or a "an inflated nine" or *nine diverse objects* or
*a mixed-up nine*
or * ......... * or " ^ /. h k < X ,@ "
or
Where's the pattern?
[The same reasoning/examples applies to all the equations taken as wholes].
All the equations you cite, like the whole of maths and logic, are
patterned, specific *applications*/examples of given concepts.
But maths does not and cannot use concepts wholly/ properly with their
open-ended realms of reference.
Concepts like "Line" and "number" in ordinary language can embrace infinite
examples, which are non-mathematical and which mathematics wouldn't go near.

9 x 9 + 7 = 88
98 x 9 + 6 = 888
987 x 9 + 5 = 8888
9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888
98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888
987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888
9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888
