Answer:

x=-10

Explanation:

We move all terms to the left:

x/2+17-(12)=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x/2+5=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator

x+5*2=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

x+10=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

x=-10
