Answer:
x =8
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(x-3)= -25
we apply distributive property
-5*x +5*3 =-25
-5x +15= -25
-5x = -25-15
-5x = -40
x = 40/5
x =8
-5(x-3)= -25
Mutiply the bracket by -5
-5(x)-5(-3)= -25
-5x+15= -25
Move + 15 to the other side. Sign changes from +15 to -15.
-5x+15-15= -25-15
-5x= -40
Divide by -5
-5x/-5= -40/-5
x= 8
Answer : x= 8
