Answer:
x = 2
Explanation:
You are solving for the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.
PEMDAS is the order of operation, and =
Parenthesis
Exponents (& Roots)
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction.
First, subtract 25 from both sides of the equation:
5x + 25 (-25) = 35 (-25)
5x = 35 - 25
5x = 10
Isolate the variable, x. Divide 5 from both sides:
(5x)/5 = (10)/5
x = 10/5
x = 2
x = 2 is your answer.
