Take -5x + 3x = -2x
because there is a -3x and a 3x they cancel each other out.
and the -17 is left
-2x = -17
divide -2 by -17 = 8.5

divide -2 by -17 = 8.5
-3x-3(-5x-17)=3
-3x+15x+51=3
12x=48
x=3
If y is equivalent to an equation you can substitute that equation in for the y variable in the other equation bc they have the same value. Which it what I did.
