9-4x=17????

Answer 1

`\boxed{ \bold{ \boxed{ \sf{x = - 2}}}}`

Explanation:

`\sf{9 - 4x = 17}`

Move 9 to right hand side and change it's sign

⇒
`\sf{ - 4x = 17 - 9}`

Subtract 9 from 17

⇒
`\sf{ - 4x = 8}`

Divide both sides of the equation by -4

⇒
`\sf{ ( - 4x)/( - 4) = (8)/( - 4)}`

Calculate

⇒
`\sf{x = - 2}`
