Question

6x+7=2x-17 solve the equation

Answer 1

6x+7 = 2x-176x-
⇒2x = -17-7
⇒4x = -24
⇒x = -24/4
⇒∴x= -6

Answer 2

In accordance with the information provided in the question,

We have find the value of the supplied expression in the above question.

Given the data in question 6x+7=2x-17

Hence, for solving the above equation, we will solve it by separating the like terms at one side.

So, we will shift 7 from LHS to RHS, the sign will change from positive to negative,

So, we will shift $2x$ from RHS to LHS ,the sign will change from positive to negative,

So, we will get it as,

$6x-2x=-17-7\\4x=-24\\x=\frac{-24}{4} \\x=-6$

Hence, value of "x" in above equation will be $-6$.
