    Hello:

    25 = 5²

    25^x = (5²) ^x = (5^x) ²

    let : 5^x = t ... t > 0

    the equation : 2 (25^x) = 3 - 5^x equiv:

    2t² = 3 - t and : 5^x = t ... t > 0

    2t² + t - 3 = 0

    the discriminant : Δ = b² - 4ac = (1) ² - 4 (2) (-3) = 25 = 5²

    t1 = (-1-5) / 4 (refused : t > 0)

    t2 = (-1+5) / 4 = 1

    but: 5^x = t

    5^x = 1

    the solution is : x=0
