To solve the equation \( 17 = -5x - 23 \), follow these steps:
1. **Add 23 to both sides** to isolate the term with \( x \):
\[
17 + 23 = -5x
\]
\[
40 = -5x
\]
2. **Divide both sides by -5** to solve for \( x \):
\[
x = \frac{40}{-5}
\]
\[
x = -8
\]
So, the solution is \( x = -8 \).
1. **Add 23 to both sides** to isolate the term with \( x \):
\[
17 + 23 = -5x
\]
\[
40 = -5x
\]
2. **Divide both sides by -5** to solve for \( x \):
