Answer:
x = 4

Explanation:

Okay, so we start with our equation.


2x + 3 = 11.

Then we need to get x alone. To do that we subtract the 3 on the side with the x.

But what we do to one side, we do to the other. So we subtract 3 from the 11 as well

2x + 3 = 11

-3 -3

2x = 8

Then we divide by 2 on both sides to get X.


(2x)/(2) =(8)/(2)


(2x)/(2) = x


(8)/(2) = 4


x = 4.
