Answer:

  • The solution to the problem is 11/5.

Work:

  • 17x - 45 + 7(5x - 2) = 5x - 3(x - 17)
  • => 17x - 45 + 35x - 14 = 5x - 3x + 51
  • => 52x - 59 = 2x + 51
  • => 52x - 2x = 59 + 51
  • => 50x = 110
  • => 5x = 11
  • => x = 11/5

Hence, the solution to the problem is 11/5.

Hoped this helped.
