Question

1/4x+17=x-4
help me and don't answer if you not gonna be serious

Answer 1

X = 28

1/4+17=x-4
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4
X+68=4z-16
Move variable to the left hand side and change its sign
X-4x+68=-16

X-4x=-16-68
Combine like terms
-3x=-16-68
-3x=-84
Divide both sides by -3
X=28

Answer 2

x equals 28

Explanation:
1/4x + 17 = x-4
move the terms
1/4x-x=-4-17
calculate
-3/4x= -21
multiply both sides
x-28
