Is that a typo...maybe 17x^2 = 85???
If so,
17x^2/17 = 85/17
x^2 = 5
x = â5

Hi. Let x=1, then 17 + 85 is your answer.

You can factor it to get 17(x^2 + 5), but thats the furthest you can go. This is not an equation and is not solvable because there is no way we can find the "x" term

There is nothing further you can do with this equation unless you give x.
