Solve (2)413x+17^2-1=0

$$( 2 ) 413 x + 17 ^ { 2 } - 1 = 0$$

Solve for x

$$x=-\frac{144}{413}\approx -0.348668281$$

Steps for Solving Linear Equation

Multiply 2 and 413 to get 826.

$$826x+17^{2}-1=0$$

Calculate 17 to the power of 2 and get 289.

$$826x+289-1=0$$

Subtract 1 from 289 to get 288.

$$826x+288=0$$

Subtract 288 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.

$$826x=-288$$

Divide both sides by 826.

$$x=\frac{-288}{826}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{-288}{826} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2.

$$x=-\frac{144}{413}$$
