#x=-18#

Explanation:

#24x-22=-4+25x#

Let us starts by subtracting #24x# from both sides of the equation to get rid of #x#'s term on the right side of the equation:
#cancel(24x)-22cancel(-24x)=-4+25x-24x#
#-22=-4+x#

Then we add 4 to both sides to isolate #x# on the left term:
#-22+4=cancel(-4)+xcancel(+4)#
#rarr x=-18#
