For this case we have the following equation:
[tex]x + 12.7 = -25.2[/tex]
To solve we follow the steps below:
Step 1:
We subtract 12.7 on both sides of the equation:
[tex]x + 12.7-12.7 = -25.2-12.7[/tex]
Step 2:
We add similar terms, taking into account that:
Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.
Different signs are subtracted and the sign of the major is placed.
So:
[tex]x + 0 = -25.2-12.7\\x = -37.9[/tex]
Finally, the result is: [tex]x = -37.9[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]x = -37.9[/tex]
Answer: x+0= -37.9/ additive inverse/simplification
X+12.7= -25.2 / given
X=37.9 / identify property of addition
X+12.7-12.7=-25.2-12.7 / subtraction property of equality
