The expression of x in the equation is x = (-25 + b)/0.9

How to determine the expression for x in the equation

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

25 = -0.9x + b

Isolate the x term

So, we have

25 - b = -0.9x

Divide both sides by -0.9

(25 - b)/(-0.9) = x

This gives

x = (-25 + b)/0.9

Hence, the expression of x is x = (-25 + b)/0.9
