    2-3(2x-1)=17  >  2-3(2x-1) = 17 > MULTIPLY THE PARENTHESES FIRST


                                     -3 * 2x = -6x,  -3 * -1= 3  > PUT PROBLEM BACK TOGETHER


    2 - 6x + 3 = 17  > -6x + 5 = 17


                                          - 5    - 5


                                  --------------------


                                     -6x  =  12


                                     -----    -------


                                      -6        -6


                                         x  =  -2


    Check answer: Put -2 in place of  (x )  >  2-3(2(-2)-1) = 17


                                                                             2-3(-4 - 1) = 17


                                                                             2 + 12 + 3 = 17


                                                                                         17  =  17
