To factor the expression \( 19 - 17x \), we need to see if it can be rewritten as a product of simpler expressions. However, since \( 19 \) and \( 17 \) are both prime numbers, and the expression is a simple linear equation, there's not much to factor out other than perhaps factoring out a common factor or rearranging it to show multiplication.
We can factor out \(-1\):
\[ 19 - 17x = -1 \cdot (-19 + 17x) \]
Thus, the expression \( 19 - 17x \) can be factored as \( -1(-19 + 17x) \). This is one way to represent it, but often linear expressions are left in their original form since they are already in their simplest state.
