Answer:

x=60

Explanation:

Move all terms not containing x to the right side of the equation.

Subtract 13 from both sides of the equation.

x/5=25-13

Subtract 13 from 25 .

x/5=12

Multiply both sides of the equation by 5 .

5*x/5=5*12

Simplify both sides of the equation.

Cancel the common factor of 5 .

x=5*12

Multiply 5 by 12 .

x=60

Hope this helped!!

Have a great day!!

Answer:


(60)/(5) + 13 = 25 \\ 12 + 13 = 25

Explanation:


25 = (x)/(5) + 13 \\ 25 - 13 = (x)/(5) \\ 12 = (x)/(5 ) \\ 12 * 5 = x \\ 60 = x
