multiply each side by the reciprocal of , which is ;
x=14
x=
x=16
2.+=17
find the LCD;
+=17
=17
multiply each side by 20;
17x=17(20)
17x=340
Divide each side by 17;
x=20
3. 5a-1 =-5 1/4
8
This problem, I'm not sure what you are asking, how the problem is suppose to be;

multiply 6 to each side;
5(6)=(6)
30=a
