x=-2 because you need to subtract 35 from both sides which you get -10 then that divided by 5 will be -2

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation: hope this helps you out

25=5x+35

Switch sides

5x+35=25

Subtract 35 from both sides

5x+35-35=25-35

Simplify

5x=-10

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5}=-10/5

x=-2
