Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand 3x+2(x-5)=25 which looks like
3x+2x-10=25
Add similar elements: ( 3x+2x = 5x)
5x-10=25
Add 10 to both sides
5x-10+10 = 25 + 10
Simplfy
5x = 35
Divide both sides by 5
5x ÷ 5 = 35 ÷ 5
Simplfy:
x = 7

Answer:
x = - 5, x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x² + x - 20
To find the zeros equate f(x) to zero, that is
x² + x - 20 = 0
Consider the factors of the constant term ( - 20) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( + 1)
The factors are + 5 and - 4, since
5 × - 4 = - 20 and + 5 - 4 = + 1, hence
(x + 5)x - 4) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
