Question

Can someone please help me! And give me a method on how to solve these sorts of questions as get stuck everytime!

Answer 1

4x-5=17
+5. +5
4x=22
Divide by 4
X=17/4

Answer 2

so 4x-5 =17

you need to get x on its own

move the -5 from the left side of the equation by adding 5 on both sides


so now it’s 4x=22

now you have to get rid of the 4 from the left so you divide both sides by 4

x= 5.5
