Answer:

3 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 17 = 4(3x - 1)

Distribute

5x+17 = 12x -4

Subtract 5x from each side

5x+17-5x = 12x-4-5x

17 = 7x-4

Add 4 to each side

17+4 = 7x-4+4

21 = 7x

Divide by 7

21/7 = 7x/7

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 17 = 4(3x - 1)

Distribute on the right side.

5x + 17 = 12x - 4

Subtract 12x from both sides. Subtract 17 from both sides.

-7x = -21

Divide both sides by -7.

x = 3
