Question

3(x + 2)=x + 11 what is the answer ?

Answer 1

x=2.5

Explanation:

3(x + 2)=x + 11

3x + 6=x + 11

2x + 6=11

2x=5

x=2.5

Answer 2

x=2.5

Explanation:

3(x+2)=x+11 (distribute 3 to x&2)

3x+6=x+11 (then you subtract x from both sides)

2x+6=11 (subtract 6 from both sides)

2x=5 ( divide by 2 on both sides)

x= 2.5
