The solution

You have entered [src]
6*(x + 2) = 4*x - 17
$$6 \left(x + 2\right) = 4 x - 17$$
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
6*(x+2) = 4*x-17

Expand brackets in the left part
6*x+6*2 = 4*x-17

Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$6 x = 4 x - 29$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$2 x = -29$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 2
x = -29 / (2)

We get the answer: x = -29/2
