x_{1}-25=x_{2}
Add x_{2} to both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.
x_{1}=x_{2}+25
Add 25 to both sides.
-x_{2}-25=-x_{1}
Subtract x_{1} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
-x_{2}=-x_{1}+25
Add 25 to both sides.
-x_{2}=25-x_{1}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{-x_{2}}{-1}=\frac{25-x_{1}}{-1}
Divide both sides by -1.
x_{2}=\frac{25-x_{1}}{-1}
Dividing by -1 undoes the multiplication by -1.
x_{2}=x_{1}-25
Divide -x_{1}+25 by -1.
