x=(e^5 /5)−((W(2×5^(((2e^5 )/5)−1) ln 5))/(2ln 5))≈1.536821

$${x}=\frac{{e}^{\mathrm{5}} }{\mathrm{5}}−\frac{\mathbb{W}\left(\mathrm{2}×\mathrm{5}^{\frac{\mathrm{2}{e}^{\mathrm{5}} }{\mathrm{5}}−\mathrm{1}} \mathrm{ln}\:\mathrm{5}\right)}{\mathrm{2ln}\:\mathrm{5}}\approx\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{536821} \\ $$

Solution:  ⇒ 25^x  = e^5 −5x  ⇒ (e^5 −5x)∙5^(−2x)  = 1  ⇒ (e^5 −5x)e^(−2x∙ln(5))  = 1  By multiplying both sides by “ ((2∙ln(5))/5) ”,  ⇒ (((2e^5 ∙ln(5))/5)−2x∙ln(5))e^(−2x∙ln(5))  = ((2∙ln(5))/5)  ⇒ (((2e^5 ∙ln(5))/5)−2x∙ln(5))e^(((2e^5 ∙ln(5))/5)−2x∙ln(5))  = ((2∙ln(5))/5)∙e^((2e^5 ∙ln(5))/5)   By Lambert W.function,  ⇒ (((2e^5 ∙ln(5))/5)−2x∙ln(5)) = W(((2∙ln(5))/5)∙e^((2e^5 ∙ln(5))/5) )  ⇒ 2x∙ln(5) = ((2e^5 ∙ln(5))/5)−W(((2∙ln(5))/5)∙e^((2e^5 ∙ln(5))/5) )  ⇒ x = ((((2e^5 ∙ln(5))/5)−W(((2∙ln(5))/5)∙e^((2e^5 ∙ln(5))/5) ))/(2∙ln(5)))  ⇒ x = (e^5 /5)−((W(((2∙ln(5))/5)∙e^((2e^5 ∙ln(5))/5) ))/(2∙ln(5))) ≈ 1.536821146     Solution by: Kevin
