The cooking time for a mini-loaf of bread is 5 minutes longer than half the time it takes to bake a regular-sized loaf of bread. If it takes 25 minutes to bake a mini-loaf, how long does it take to bake a regular-sized loaf?

let's let m = the time to make a mini-loaf
let R = the time it takes to make a regular loaf

mini loaf = 5 more than half the time it takes to make a regular size loaf

if we let m = (1/2)R + 5

you can plug in 25 minutes for m and solve for R
