    17 = 3x - 4x + 5

    17 = - 1x + 5

    12 = 1x

    x = 12

    So set up the equation: 17 = 3x - 4x + 1

    Subtract 3x and 4x: 17 = - 1x + 5

    Subtract 5 to both sides, so 17 - 5: 12 = 1x

    Divided 1 to both sides and get your answer: X = 12

    17 = 3x - 4x + 1

    17 = - 1x + 5

    12 = 1x

    X = 12
