Answer:

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Add x to both sides.

[tex]17 = 1 + 3x + x[/tex]

2) Simplify 1 + 3x + x to 1 + 4x.

[tex]17 = 1 + 4x[/tex]

3) Subtract 1 from both sides.

[tex]17 - 1 = 4x[/tex]

4) Simplify 17 - 1 to 16.

[tex]16 = 4x[/tex]

5) Divide both sides by 4.

[tex] \frac{16}{4} = x[/tex]

6) Simplify 16/4 to 4.

[tex]4 = x[/tex]

7) Switch sides.

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

Therefor, the answer is x = 4.
