Get it to equal 0

minus 17x from both sides

2x²-17x+35=0

tricky part
get something like
(2x-a)(x-b)
we know the signs  are negative since the middle term is negative and last term is positive

so a and b are either 1 and 35 or 5 and 7

(2x-1)(x-35), nope
(2x-35)(x-1) nope
(2x-5)(x-7), nope
(2x-7)(x-5), yep

(2x-7)(x-5)=0
set to zero
2x-7=0
2x=7
x=7/2

x-5=0
x=5


x=7/2 and 5
