Answer :

Answer:

x= 9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

2(5x+4)=17

Distribute

10x +8 = 17

Subtract 8 from each side

10x+8-8=17-8

10x = 9

Divid by 10

10x/10 = 9/10

x= 9/10

Divide both sides by 2:

5x + 4 = 8.5

Subtract both sides by 4:

5x = 8.5 - 4 = 4.5

Divide both sides by 5:

x = 4.5 / 5 = 0.9  or  9/10
