Divide both sides by 17 to get x alone. 17x/17 is x, and 9/17 is approximately 0.529411764705882, or as a fraction, 9/17. therefore, x=9/17.

17x + 9
The given expression is: 4x² - 17x + 18 = 0 Determine the two integers such that the sum is -17 and the product is 4 * 18 = 72. They are -9 and -8. We can decompose -17x to: 4x² - 9x - 8x + 18 = 0 Factor-by-grouping, we obtain: x(4x - 9) - 2(4x - 9) = 0 Therefore, the factors are (4x - 9)(x - 2) If we want to determine the zeroes of the expression, set each binomial by 0 and solve for x. We obtain: 4x - 9 = 0 and x - 2 = 0 x = 9/4 and x = 2.
