Question

I need to figure out the x in this equation. 7x - 10 = 25

Answer 1

x = 5

Explanation:

7x -10 = 25, to isolate the term with x we will add 10 to both sides

7x -10+10 = 25 +10, combine like terms

7x = 35, divide both sides by 7

7x /7 = 35/7 , simplify the fractions

x = 5

Answer 2

x=5

Explanation:

7x-10=25

+10 +10

7x=35

divide by 7 both sides
