Answer:

  1. -25
  2. 0

Explanation:

We will first find what x is by solving the equation x - 25 = -75.

Add 25 to both sides:


\sf{x=-75+25}


\sf{x=-50}

Now, we know that x = -50, and we plug that into the expression x + 25:


\sf{-50+25=\boxed{\bf{-25}}

Now, substitute -50 into the expression x + 50:


\sf{-50+50=\boxed{\bf{0}}

Hello!

Answer:


\Large \boxed{\sf -25 ~and ~0}

Explanation:

→ We want to calculate the value of:


\sf x+25


\sf x+50

→ To caculate, we must to find the value of x.

→ To find the value of x, let's solve the equation:


\sf x - 25 = -75

Add 25 to both sides:


\sf x - 25+25 = -75+25

Simplify both sides:


\sf x = -50

→ So, now, we have the value of x.

→ Therefore, we must to calculate the value of our expressions.

→ Let's replace x by - 50:


\sf -50+25


\sf -50+50

Simplify the expressions:


\sf -25


\sf 0

Conclusion:

So if we suppose that
\sf x - 25 = -75:

- the value of
\sf x + 25 is
\sf -25

- the value of
\sf x + 50 is
\sf 0
