Answer:

-6/5

Explanation:

The first thing that you will do is to remove the absolute value bars. So, it will look like this: 10+7+5x=11

Then, you will combine like terms. So, this is how it will look: 17+5x=11

Next, you will subtract 17 from both sides since it is a positive number, (use the subtraction property of equality) and it will look like: 17-17+5x=11-17

Then you get: 5x=-6

So, from there, you must divide. (use the division property of equality) 5x/5=-6/5

So, your answer is -6/5
