Answer:

[tex]x=3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

[tex](3x-1)(5x+4)-15x^2=17[/tex]

applying the distributive property left side

[tex](3x-1)(5x+4)-15x^2=17\\15x^{2}+12x-5x-4-15x^{2}=17[/tex]

Combine like terms

[tex](15x^{2}-15x^{2})+(12x-5x)=17+4[/tex]

[tex](0)+(7x)=21[/tex]

[tex]7x=21[/tex]

[tex]x=21/7=3[/tex]
