Let's get the same terms on the same side.
I am going to remove 5x from both sides of the equation by subtracting 5x

5x - 5x -7 = 7x -5x - 17
           -7 = 2x - 17   now lets remove the 17 from both sides
       -7 + 17 = 2x     (why do we add 17?  Think of 2x -17 as 2x +  -17.  Tor remove a negative number we add it.
Now we finally have     10=2x and if we divide both sides by 2

<u>10</u>  = <u>2x</u><u>
</u>2       2    we get that x = 5
<u />Let's check by substituting 5 in the original equation:
5(5) - 7 = 7(5) - 17
25 - 7 = 35 - 17
18      =       18

The product of a number and 8 less than the number is –15. Find the number. and plz explain
blondinia [14]

Answer:

It can be 5 or  3

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = that number

x * (x - 8) = -15

xx  - 8x + 15 = 0

xx -  3x  - 5x + 15 = 0

x(x - 3) - 5(x - 3) = 0

(x - 5)(x - 3) = 0

then x = 5 or  x = 3
