Given:

3x-17=15x+10x-5

The objective is to find the value of x.

Let's solve the given equation by bringing the x variables to same side of the equation.


\begin{gathered} 3x-17=15x+10x-5 \\ 3x-15x-10x=-5+17 \\ -22x=12 \\ x=(12)/(-22) \\ x=-(6)/(11) \end{gathered}

Hence, the value of x = -6/11.
