61 + 51 = 112

2x - 17 = 112

2x = 129

Let's solve ~


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 2x - 17 = 51 + 61


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 2x - 17 = 112


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 2x = 112 + 17


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: 2x = 129


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x = (129)/(2)


\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x = 64.5
