Answer: x= -7/11

Step-by-step explanation:

13x+17+5x=7x+10

collect the like terms by adding their coefficients

18x+17=7x+10

move variable to the left side and change its sign

18x-7x+17=10

move constant to the right side and change its sign

18x-7x=10-17

collect the like terms

11x=10-17

calculate the difference

11x= -7

divide both sides by 11

x= -7/11
