Answer 1

The answer is x=2 !!!

Answer 2

11(x+10)=132 x = 2

Explanation:

Step 1: Distribute the 11 to the "x" and the "10".

(Equation now becomes 11x + 110 =132)

Step 2: Subtract the "110" over to the "132"

(Equation now becomes 11x=22)

Step 3: Divide the "11" and the "22" --> 11x=22

11 11
