Answer:

52/3

Explanation:

Rewrite this in improper fractions:

(10 - 17/3)(-2) + x = 26/3

Simplifying the quantity inside parentheses:

(30/3 - 17/3)(-2) + x = 26/3

Multiply both sides by 3 to eliminate the fractions:

(13)(-2) +3x = 26

Then, +3x = 26 + 26 = 52

Finally, 3x = 52 becomes x = 52/3
