Answer: X=1/72

Explanation:

3/8x-17=10

We move all terms to the left:

3/8x-17-(10)=0

Domain of the equation: 8x!=0

x!=0/8

x!=0

x∈R

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3/8x-27=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator

-27*8x+3=0

Wy multiply elements

-216x+3=0

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

-216x=-3

x=-3/-216

x=1/72

Hello!☺

$Answer:\boxed{x=72}$

Explanation:

(3)/(8)x-17=10

Let's start by adding 17 to both sides:

(3)/(8)x-17+17=10+17

(3)/(8)x=27

In our second/final step, we will multiply both sides by 8/3:

$((8)/(3))*((3)/(8)x)=((8)/(3))*27=72\\ x=72$

Hope this helps!☺
