Answer:

x=11

Explanation:

First Distribute 11 to 9 and -2x

Then distribute the negative to 12x and 11

Then calculate like terms

-22x + 12x = -11 -99 which comes out to -10x=-110

Then divide each side by -10

Your answer will then be x=11

The value of x = 11.


Explanation: 99-22x=- 12x - 11


Collect like terms: -22x + 12x = -11 - 99



Divide both sides: -10x = -110 by -10
