Break this problem into two subproblems by setting 
(x + -1.25) equal to 0.0000 and 0.0000.

Subproblem 1

x + -1.25 = 0.0000 Simplifying x + -1.25 = 0.0000 Reorder the terms: -1.25 + x = 0.0000 Solving -1.25 + x = 0.0000 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.25' to each side of the equation. -1.25 + 1.25 + x = 0.0000 + 1.25 Combine like terms: -1.25 + 1.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = 0.0000 + 1.25 x = 0.0000 + 1.25 Combine like terms: 0.0000 + 1.25 = 1.25 x = 1.25 Simplifying x = 1.25

Subproblem 2

x + -1.25 = 0.0000 Simplifying x + -1.25 = 0.0000 Reorder the terms: -1.25 + x = 0.0000 Solving -1.25 + x = 0.0000 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '1.25' to each side of the equation. -1.25 + 1.25 + x = 0.0000 + 1.25 Combine like terms: -1.25 + 1.25 = 0.00 0.00 + x = 0.0000 + 1.25 x = 0.0000 + 1.25 Combine like terms: 0.0000 + 1.25 = 1.25 x = 1.25 Simplifying x = 1.25

Solution
