Hey there!

[tex]\large\boxed{x=-40}[/tex]

We need to isolate x.

So, we want to add 17 to each side to cancel out the -17 on the left side.

x - 17 + 17 = -57 + 17

Simplify.

x = -40

Hope this helps!

Answer:

[tex]★\:{\green{\underline{\red{\boxed{\purple{x - 17 = - 57}}}}}}\:★[/tex]

Here, we have to separate the like terms i.e., separate the value which contains x term in one side and the constant term on the other side of the equal to sign, and then substract to find the value of x;

Therefore,

[tex]x = 17 - 57 \\ \boxed{x = - 40}✓[/tex]

Hence, the value of x comes out to be -40.

-40 is the right answer.
