Okay. What you have to do here is get d alone on the left side of the equation. What you have to do is subtract 5 from both sides of the equation, since what you do to one side of the equation you do to the other. This will get d alone, therefore showing what d equals. Let me show it to you visually.
5+d=17
-5 -5
-----------
d=12
This is how you solve the problem. I subtracted five from both sides, getting d alone. On the other side of the equation, 17-5=12. Therefore, d=12.
There you go. I'm glad I could help. :)

-5 +5 +d = 17 - 5
-5 and +5 get canceled. so, d = 17 - 5 = 12.

5-5+d=17-5 ( substrack 5 from both sides)
d=12

You have to get d by itself. So in order to do that, you subtract 5 from both sides:
5+d=17
-5 -5
d=12
