X=4, first you distribute the 2 to both 4x and -11 which leaves you with 8x-22+9=19 next you add -22 with 9 which leaves you -13 the eqation now at 8x-13=19 so now you add 13 to both sides now youre left with 8x=32. Now the last step is to divide 8 on both sides. so that gives you the answer or X=4
