Answer: x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+5 -13x =25     combine like terms on the left side

-10x + 5 = 25        Subtract 5 from both sides

        -5      -5

-10x = 20     Divide both sides -10

x = -2

Answer:

[tex]x = -2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have the equation [tex]3x+5-13x=25[/tex], we can isolate x on one side and find it's value.

Let's combine like terms.

[tex]-10x + 5 = 25[/tex]

Subtract 5 from both sides:

[tex]-10x + 5 - 5 = 25 - 5\\\\-10x = 20[/tex]

Divide both sides by -10:

[tex]-10x\div-10 = 20\div-10\\\\x = -2[/tex]

So [tex]x = -2[/tex].

Hope this helped!
