Answer :

Answer:

x = 12

Explanation:

Given the expression

17-5(2x-9)=-(-6x+10)+4

Open the parenthesis

17 - 5(2x) - 5(-9) = -6x + 10 + 4

17 - 10x + 45 = -6x + 14

-10x + 62 = -6x + 14

Collect the like terms

-10x + 6x = 14 - 62

-4x = -48

Divide both sides by -4

-4x/-4 = -48/-4

x = 48/4

x = 12

Hence the value of x that makes the equation true is 12
