Answer:

a = 4

Explanation:

6a-11=13

solve the equation

Add 11 to each side

6a-11+11=13+11

6a = 24

Divide each side by 6

6a/6 = 24/6

a = 4

To solve the equation:


6a-11=13

We can proceed as follows:

• First, add 11 to both sides of the equation:


6a-11+11=13+11
6a+0=24\Rightarrow6a=24

• Second, divide both sides of the equation by 6:


(6)/(6)a=(24)/(6)\Rightarrow a=4

The answer is a = 4.
