Hey there again!

First , let's add 17 on each of your sides (we have to get the "X" by itself , right?

Like: -12x - 17 + 17
= -89 + 17

-89 + 17 = -72

So, divide by -12 on each of your sides since both numbers goes into 12

Like: 12x / -12 = -1

= -72 / -12 = 6

X = 6

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
