Answer: x ≈ 0.522
Step-by-step explanation:
We will solve the given equation for x.
Given:
17x - 8 = 4 - 6x
Add 8 to both sides of the equation:
17x = 12 - 6x
Add 6x to both sides of the equation:
23x = 12
Divide both sides of the equation by 23:
[tex]x=\dfrac{12}{23}[/tex]
Divide:
x = 0.52173913043
Round to the nearest thousandth:
x ≈ 0.522
