write a two step equation involving division and addition that has a solution of x= -25
Let us consider a variable x.
and now we take a equation in terms of the variable x as follows:
\(2x-25=-75\)
First step:
We first add both side of the equation by 25.
i.e. the first step involves the process of addition.
\(2x=-75+25\\\\i.e.\\\\2x=-50\)
Second step:
Now we divide both side of the equation by 2 to obtain:
i.e. this step involves the process of division.
\(x=\dfrac{-50}{2}\\\\i.e.\\\\x=-25\)
