Answer:

[tex]-\frac{62}{9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The properties of equality state that you are allowed to perform operations on an equation as long as the operations are done equally on both sides.

Solving the Equation

First, rewrite the equation

  • [tex]-18x - 17 = 107[/tex]

Next, apply the addition property of equality and add 17 to both sides

  • [tex]-18x=124[/tex]

Finally, apply the division property of equality and divide both sides by -18

  • [tex]x=\frac{124}{-18}[/tex]

Then, simplify for the final answer (divide numerator and denominator by 2)

  • [tex]x=-\frac{62}{9}[/tex]
