Explanation:

Given that,

Two equations,

3x + 11 = 11 .....(1)

And

3(x - 3) = 45

or

3x-9=45 ....(2)

Subtract 11 on both sides of equation (1).

3x + 11-11 = 11-11

3x=0

x = 0

Add 9 to both sides of equation (2)

3x-9+9=45+9

3x = 54

x = 18

Hence, the solution of equation (1) is x=0 and form equation (2) x = 18.
