Question

25x-43=207 what is x equal to?

Answer 1

x=10

Explanation:

First take -43 and add it to 207 because if your moving to one side you have to do the opposite of what it tells you so that gives you the equasion of...

25x=250

Then from there you take your 250 and divide it by 25 which gives you an answer of x=10

Answer 2

x=10

Explanation:

First we need to use the addition property of equality to try to get 25x isolated. So we will add 43 to both sides

25x = 250

Now we will use the division property of equality to divide both sides by 25 to get x isolated or by itself.

x=10

If you plug it back into the equation it will remain a true statement.
