What is the solution to this equation?

x - 4 = 17
A. x= 23
B. x = 13
C. x = 21
O D. x = 11

Answer 1

`\huge{ \fbox{ \sf{x = 21}}}`

Option C is correct.

Explanation:

`\underline{ \underline{ \mathfrak{Let's \: solve}}} :`

`\bigstar{ \sf{ \: \: x - 4 = 17}}`

`\text{Step \: 1} : \sf{Move \: 4 \: to \: right \: hand \: side \: and \: change \: its \: sign}`

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{x = 17 + 4}}`

`\text{Step \: 2} : \sf{Add \: the \: numbers}`

`\longrightarrow{ \sf{x = 21}}`

The value of x is 21

Hope I helped!
