The correct answer is: 25

xZ but x0 where xZ

-25x25

Now, x+6135x 

 x2+6x-135x0

x+15x-9x0

The solution set is x(-,-15](0,9]

Given that x|-25x25,x0

Common interval is x-25,-15(0,9]

Total number of integers in (0, 9] and -25 ,-15 are

9+11=20 

Total numbers in sample space, -25x25, x0 are 50

Favourable outcomes=20

Probability =number of favourable outcomes total outcomes

Probability=2050=25
