If this is supposed to be

Then this can simply be reduced to

by the double angle formula for cosine
100
6738 —> 7000
5903 —> 6000
7000 - 6000 = 1000
The solution would be like this for this specific problem:


The correct sequence of operations when solving
negative one over five (x − 25) = 7 would be multiply each side by −5, and adding
25 to each side.
