Question

17x + 12 = 13x + 24​

Answer 1

Answer:

17x - 13x = 24 - 12

4x = 12

x = 12/4

x =3

Answer 2

Answer:

=> The value of x is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:-

$17x + 12 = 13x + 24$

To find:- The value of the expression,

We must use the transposition method to calculate the value of x:

As we have,

=> $17x + 12 = 13x + 24$

Now subtract both sides by $12$,

=> $17x + 12 -12= 13x + 24-12$

Simplifying it further, we get

=> $17x =13 x -12$

Now subtract both sides by $13x$,

=> $17x-13x =13 x -12-13x$

=> $4x = -12$

Divide both sides by $4$,

=> $x = -3$

Hence, the required solution is -3.
