Subtracting 2 to both sides

[tex]\sf 3x = 17-2\\3x = 15[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 3

[tex]\sf x = 15/3\\x = 5[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]x=5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 2 from both sides.

[tex]3x + 2 - 2 = 17 - 23x = 15[/tex]

Next, we need to divide both sides by 3.

[tex]\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{15}{3}\\x=5[/tex]

The answer, as stated above, is [tex]x=5[/tex]
