The equations that represent the total number of tubes of paint the teacher bought are:

1. **17 + 17 + 17 + 17 + 17 + 17 = 102** (This shows the total by adding each pack of paint.)
2. **6 × 17 = 102** (This represents the total number of tubes by multiplying the number of packs by the number of tubes per pack.)

The other two options, 17 + 6 = 23 and 23 - 6 = 17, do not represent the total number of tubes of paint and are therefore not applicable.
