Solve for x : 10x−25=95

1 answer

To solve for x, we need to isolate it on one side of the equation by performing inverse operations.

Starting with the equation:
10x - 25 = 95

To isolate x, we will add 25 to both sides of the equation:

10x - 25 + 25 = 95 + 25

This simplifies to:
10x = 120

Next, we divide both sides of the equation by 10 to solve for x:

(10x)/10 = 120/10

This simplifies to:
x = 12

Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 12.
