Solve for x. 25(10x+15)=26 (1 point) CHOOSE ONE OF THE FOLLOWING

Question

A.x = 5
B.x = 12
C.x = 7
D.x = 3

Answer 1

To solve for x, we will begin by distributing the 25 on the left side of the equation:

25(10x + 15) = 26

250x + 375 = 26

Next, we will isolate the variable x by subtracting 375 from both sides of the equation:

250x = 26 - 375

250x = -349

Finally, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 250:

x = -349/250

After simplifying, we find that x is approximately -1.396.

Therefore, none of the given options A, B, C, or D are correct.
