Answer

\(\boxed{x = 4}\)

Steps

Step 1 ：Add x to both sides: \(5x - 17 + x = -x + 7 + x\) which simplifies to \(6x - 17 = 7\)

Step 2 ：Add 17 to both sides: \(6x - 17 + 17 = 7 + 17\) which simplifies to \(6x = 24\)

Step 3 ：Divide both sides by 6: \(\frac{6x}{6} = \frac{24}{6}\) which simplifies to \(x = 4\)

Step 4 ：\(\boxed{x = 4}\)
