To solve this first combine all like terms.

11x+2x=13x

4+51+8=63

13x+63=180

Subtract 63 from both sides.

13x+63-63=180-63

13x=117

Divide both sides by 13 for x.


(13x)/(13)=
(117)/(13)

x=9

The answer or the solution to the equation is 9.

Hi,

Work:

Equation;


11x + 4 + 51 + 2x + 8 = 180

Collect like terms and calculate sum of positive numbers.


13x + 63 = 180

Move constant +63 to the right side and change its sign.


13x = 180 - 63

Subtract numbers.


13x = 117

Divide both sides of equation with 13.


x = 9


Hope this helps.
