    According to the question

    5x+17=11x+5

    To solve this kind of question we will have to collect like terms

    Therefore the question is asking us to make x the subject of formula or we should look for an accurate value for x

    17-5=11x-5x

    12=6x

    Let's make x the subject of formula by dividing both sides by 6

    x=2

    Therefore the final answer for x is 2
