3a+11=7a-13

move 7a to the other side

sign changes from +7a to -7a

3a-7a+11= 7a-7a-13( combine like terms)

3a-7a+11= -13

-4a+11= -13

move 11 to the other side

sign changes from +11 to -11

-4a+11-11= -13-11

-4a= -13-11

-4a= -24

divide both sides by -4 to get a by itself

-4a/-4= -24/-4

Answer: a= 6
