Answer:

i = 87

Explanation:

First, you would distribute 5 through the parenthesis by multiplying everything inside by 5. So 5*21=105 and 5*4=20. Next, you would add them together and simplify the equation to 125 - i = 38. Then you would subtract 38 from 125 to receive the equation 87 - i = 0. Finally, you would add i to both sides and get i = 87.
