To form 5 - 4x from x :
to solve 5 - 4x = 17:
the solution to the equation 5-4x=17 is :

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    5-4*x-(17)=0

1.1     Pull out like factors :

  -12 - 4x  =   -4 • (x + 3)

2.1      Solve :    -4   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero. 2.2      Solve  :    x+3 = 0

Subtract  3  from both sides of the equation :

                     x = -3
