Answer 2

`\:\:\:\huge\color{}\boxed{\colorbox{}{Process:}}\\\\`

`{\boxed {\bold {0 = 22 + 8x + 17}}}}}`

• Here we add the natural (normal) numbers.

`{\boxed {\bold {0 = 22 + 8x + 17}}}}}`

`{\boxed {\bold {0 = 39 + 8x}}}}}`

• Now since this cannot be simplified, they are just a fraction.

`{\boxed {\bold {x=(39)/(8)}}}}}` ✔

• Another way to know if the result is correct is to use subtraction.

`{\boxed {\bold {0=8x+39}}}}}`

`{\boxed {\bold {0-39=8x+39-39}}}}}` ✔
