Answer:

X = 12

Given:

3x + 7 = 5x - 17

To Find:

The answer

Solution:

→ Subtract 3x from both sides

7 = 5x - 3x - 17

7 = 2x - 17

→ Add 17 to both sides

7 + 17 = 2x

24 = 2x

→ Divide both sides by 2

x = 24/2

= 12

answer formed:

x = 12

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf x = 12}$

Explanation:

Given equation:

3x + 7 = 5x - 17

Subtract 3x from both sides

7 = 5x - 3x - 17

7 = 2x - 17

Add 17 to both sides

7 + 17 = 2x

24 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

12 = x

OR

x = 12
