Question

if 17 =3x-7 then x =​

Answer 1

• As per the data given in the question, we have to find the value of the expression.

           Given data:- $17=3x-7.$

           To find:- Value of the expression.

           Solution:-

• Here, we will use the below following steps to find a solution using the transposition method:

• Step 1:- we will Identify the variables and constants in the given simple equation.

• Step 2:-then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.

• Step 3:- Transpose or shift the term on the other side to solve the equation further simplest.

• Step 4:- Simplify the equation using arithmetic operation as required that is mentioned in rule 1 or rule 2 of linear equations.

• Step 5:- Then the result will be the solution for the given linear equation. By using the transposition method. we get,

              $17=3x-7\\\17+7=3x\\24=3x\\x=\frac{24}{3} \\x=8.$

        Hence we will get the value $x=8.$

Answer 2

As per the data given in the question,

We have to determine the value of "x' by solving the given expression.

From the data,

It is given that,

$17=3x-7$

So, for solving the given expression, we need to shift -7 from RHS of the equation to LHS of the equation.

So, we will get,

$17+7 = 3x$

So, for determining the value of "x" we will shift 3 from LHS to RHS.

So, we will get it as,

$3x = 24\\=> x = \frac{24}{3}\\=> x = 8$

Hence, value of "x" in the given expression is = 8.
