Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + 7.5) equal to 12.5 and -12.5.

Subproblem 1

x + 7.5 = 12.5 Simplifying x + 7.5 = 12.5 Reorder the terms: 7.5 + x = 12.5 Solving 7.5 + x = 12.5 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-7.5' to each side of the equation. 7.5 + -7.5 + x = 12.5 + -7.5 Combine like terms: 7.5 + -7.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = 12.5 + -7.5 x = 12.5 + -7.5 Combine like terms: 12.5 + -7.5 = 5 x = 5 Simplifying x = 5

Subproblem 2

x + 7.5 = -12.5 Simplifying x + 7.5 = -12.5 Reorder the terms: 7.5 + x = -12.5 Solving 7.5 + x = -12.5 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-7.5' to each side of the equation. 7.5 + -7.5 + x = -12.5 + -7.5 Combine like terms: 7.5 + -7.5 = 0.0 0.0 + x = -12.5 + -7.5 x = -12.5 + -7.5 Combine like terms: -12.5 + -7.5 = -20 x = -20 Simplifying x = -20

Solution

The solution to the problem is based on the solutions from the subproblems. x = {5, -20}
