Question

$$17x+102=x+6$$

Solve for x

$x=-6$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Subtract $x$ from both sides.

$$17x+102-x=6$$

Combine $17x$ and $-x$ to get $16x$.

$$16x+102=6$$

Subtract $102$ from both sides.

$$16x=6-102$$

Subtract $102$ from $6$ to get $-96$.

$$16x=-96$$

Divide both sides by $16$.

$$x=\frac{-96}{16}$$

Divide $-96$ by $16$ to get $-6$.

$$x=-6$$
