If 5x 17 7 Then X

If 5x 17 = x + 7, then x =? 3

17x7

5x17 = x + 7

+17 +17

5x = x + 24

+ x + x

6x = 24x = 4

/ 6/6

x = 4

5x17 = x + 7

+17 +17

5x = x + 24

+ 1x + 1x

6x = 24

/ 6/6

x = 4

5 * x + x = 7 + 17

6 * x = 24

x = 6/24

x = 4

5x 17 = x + 7 ....... 5x + x = 17 + 7 ...... 6x = 24 ....... x = 24/6 ..... x = 4

Add x on both sides:

6 x 17 = 7

Now add 17 on both sides.

6x = 24

Divide both sides by 6.

x = 4

5 x 17 = x + 7
6 x 17 = 7
6x = 24
x = 4
x = 4
