3 ( 2x - 1 ) - 2( 3x + 4 ) = 11 x

By Solving We get ,

6x - 3 - 6x - 8 = 11x

-11x = 11

Therefore x = -1

3(2x - 1) - 2(3x + 4) = 11x

  • Distribute 3 inside the parentheses.

6x - 3 - 2(3x + 4) = 11x

  • Distribute 2 inside the parentheses.

6x - 3 - 6x - 8 = 11x

  • Combine like terms.

-11 = 11x

  • Divide both sides by 11.

x = -1
