The statement that accurately describes a balanced force is:
"A 25-N force acts on the left side of the marble at the same time as a 25-N force acts on the right side of the marble."
This scenario describes balanced forces because the two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, resulting in no net force acting on the marble. As a result, the marble would remain in its state of motion.
