Answer:

[tex]x = 3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]4x − 5 = −17[/tex]

Add 5 to both sides of the equation

That's

[tex]4x + 5 - 5 = - 17 + 5 \\ 4x = - 12[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4

[tex] \frac{4x}{4} = - \frac{12}{4} \\ [/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex]x = 3 \\ [/tex]

Hope this helps you
