The answer to the equation is 2. I found this by doing the following:

12x + 1 = 25
-1 -1
12x = 24
— —
12 12

x = 2

I hope I helped!

For this case we have the following equation:


12x + 1 = 25

We must find the solution!

Subtracting 1 from both sides of the equation we have:


12x = 25-1\\12x = 24

Dividing between 12 on both sides of the equation we have:


x = \frac {24} {12}\\x = 2

Thus, the solution is given by
x = 2

Answer:


x = 2
