Answer:
x=17
Explanation:
Distributive property: A(B+C)=AB+AC
Expand.
3(x+11)=3x+33
5x-1=3x+33
Add by 1 from both sides of equation.
5x-1+1=3x+33+1
Simplify.
5x=3x+34
Subtract by 3x from both sides of equation.
5x-3x=3x+34-3x
Simplify.
2x=34
Divide by 2 from both sides of equation.
2x/2=34/2
Simplify, to find the answer.
34/2=17
x=17 is the correct answer.
I hope this helps you, and have a wonderful day!
