Hi there!

»»————- ★ ————-««

I believe your answer is:


x = \pm 5

»»————- ★ ————-««

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻


\boxed{\text{Solving for 'x'...}}\\\\x^2-25 = 0\\-------------\\\rightarrow x^2 -25 + 25 = 0 + 25\\\\\rightarrow x^2 = 25\\\\\rightarrow √(x^2)=√(25)\\\\\rightarrow \boxed{x = \pm 5}

⸻⸻⸻⸻

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.

Answer:


x = 5 \: \: \: or \: \: \: x = - 5

Explanation:


{x}^(2) - 25 = 0 \\ {x}^(2) - {5}^(2) \\ ( x - 5)(x + 5) = 0 \\ \\ x - 5 = 0 \\ x = 5 \\ or \\ x + 5 = 0 \\ x = - 5
