Hello

The answer to your question is 2

Hope this helps!

(if you like I could give you an explanation)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract the numbers 17 and 2, which will give you 15. So now the equation looks like this: 13x-15=11

Now, Add 15 to both sides of the equation.

13x - 15 = 11

13x - 15 + 15 = 11 + 15

Now we simply.

13x = 11 + 15

13x - 15 + 15 = 11 + 15

13x = 11 + 15

13x = 26

Then Divide both sides of the equation by the same term:

13x = 26 (13x)/13 = 26/13

Cancel terms that are in both the numerator and denominator

(13x)/13 = 26/13

x = 26/13

Divide the numbers

x = 26/13

x = 2

x = 2

I Hope this helps!
