    25x + (-11) = - 86

    25x - 11 = - 86 | + 11

    25x - 11 + 11 = - 86 + 11

    25x = - 75 | : 25

    25x : 25 = - 75 : 25

    x = - 3

    25x + - 11 = - 86

    Add 11 to both sides, so to - 11, it cancels out, as well as - 86, which leaves you with 25x = - 75

    Then divide by 25 on both sides, 25x becomes just x, and - 75 becomes - 3.

    Therefore x = - 3
