If you treat the number as x, then
.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
25 - 3x = -5(1 - x) - 2x
<u></u>
<u>We have to first get rid of the parenthesis:</u>
==> -5
==> 5x
<u>So now you should have:</u>
25 - 3x = -5 + 5x - 2x
<u>Combine like terms:</u>
25 - 3x = -5 + 5x - 2x
25 - 3x = -5 + 3x
<u>Add 3x to both sides:</u>
25 - 3x = -5 + 3x
+ 3x = + 3x
<u>And you should have:</u>
25 = -5 + 6x
<u></u>
<u>Add 5 to both sides:</u>
25 = -5 + 6x
+5 = +5
30 = 6x
<u>Divide 6 to both sides:</u>
= 
5 = x
I might be misreading something here but if:
x^5+243=0 subtract 243 from both sides
x^5=-243 raise both sides to the 1/5 power (or take the fifth root of both sides)
x=-3
So there is only one solution, x=-3

Explanation:
A sequence is a list of numbers.
A <em>geometric</em> sequence is a list of numbers such that the ratio of each number to the one before it is the same. The common ratio can be any non-zero value.
<u>Examples</u>
- 1, 2, 4, 8, ... common ratio is 2
- 27, 9, 3, 1, ... common ratio is 1/3
- 6, -24, 96, -384, ... common ratio is -4

<u>General Term</u>
Terms of a sequence are numbered starting with 1. We sometimes use the symbol a(n) or an to refer to the n-th term. The general term of a geometric sequence, a(n), can be described by the formula ...
a(n) = a(1)×r^(n-1) . . . . . n-th term of a geometric sequence
where a(1) is the first term, and r is the common ratio. The above example sequences have the formulas ...
- a(n) = 2^(n -1)
- a(n) = 27×(1/3)^(n -1)
- a(n) = 6×(-4)^(n -1)
You can see that these formulas are exponential in nature.
__
<u>Sum of Terms</u>
Another useful formula for geometric sequences is the formula for the sum of n terms.
S(n) = a(1)×(r^n -1)/(r -1) . . . . . sum of n terms of a geometric sequence
When |r| < 1, the sum converges as n approaches infinity. The infinite sum is ...
S = a(1)/(1-r)
