10x-40\left(x+1\right)=17
Multiply 8 and 5 to get 40.
10x-40x-40=17
Use the distributive property to multiply -40 by x+1.
-30x-40=17
Combine 10x and -40x to get -30x.
-30x=17+40
Add 40 to both sides.
-30x=57
Add 17 and 40 to get 57.
x=\frac{57}{-30}
Divide both sides by -30.
x=-\frac{19}{10}
Reduce the fraction \frac{57}{-30} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 3.
