Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

-2x - 5 = x - 17

-2x - 5 + 5 = x - 17 + 5

* cancel out 5 on each side of equal sign.

2)

-2x = x - 12

-2x - x = x - x - 12

* cancel out x on each side of equal sign.

3)

-3x = -12

-3x/ -3 = -12/-3

* cancel out -3x on each side of equal sign.

4) Simplify

x = 4

Hope this helps, good luck! :)

Have a great day!!
