Question

6x+17 2x+19 find the value of x

Answer 1

assuming you meant 6x+17=2x+19;

6x-2x + 17 = 2x - 2x +19 (subtracting 2x from each side)

4x + 17 - 17 = 19 - 17 (subtract 17 from each side)

4x = 2 (last step is to divide by 4 on both sides)

x = 2/4 = 1/2 = 0.5

Answer 2

6x+17
-(2x+19)
----------- add them up
4x-2=>4x=2=>x=1/2
