Answer 1

D

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

75+50x=25+70x

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

50x+75=70x+25

Step 2: Subtract 70x from both sides.

50x+75−70x=70x+25−70x

−20x+75=25

Step 3: Subtract 75 from both sides.

−20x+75−75=25−75

−20x=−50

Step 4: Divide both sides by -20.

−20x

−20

=

−50
