Answer:

Get all the terms with x on the left. Get all the terms without x on the right. Simplify by adding and subtracting the terms without x and adding and subtracting the terms with x. Finally divide to get the value of x.

Explanation:

6x+6 =- 5+3x+17

6x+6 -6 =- 5+3x+17 -6

6x = 5+3x+11

6x = 3x + 16

6x - 3x = 3x + 16 -3x

3x = 16

3x / 3 = 16 / 3

x = 15/3 + 1/3

x = 5 1/3

x = 5.33333...
