x = 16
Subproblem 2
Set the factor '(25 + x)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:

Simplifying
25 + x = 0

Solving
25 + x = 0

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-25' to each side of the equation.
25 + -25 + x = 0 + -25

Combine like terms: 25 + -25 = 0
0 + x = 0 + -25
x = 0 + -25

Combine like terms: 0 + -25 = -25
x = -25

Simplifying
x = -25
Solution
x = {16, -25}
