Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x+17=20

lets get rid of the 17 first by subtracting

1/2x=3

If 1/2 of X + 17 = 20, then all you have to do is find whatever adds to 17 to make 20, in this case, 3. However it’s telling you half of X add 17 = 20, so double the half (3) to get 6 which is the final answer.

1/2 of 6 = 3
3+17=20
X = 6
