Answer: 19
Why?
You have to get x alone so you have to add 11 to both sides
X-11+11= 8+11
The 11 cancel out on the left and 8+11 equals 19 so x=19

This is pretty easy to do.

First, you have to get x alone by getting rid of the terms next to it. In this case, it’s -11.

To get rid of a term, do the opposite.


So x - 11 + 11 = 8 + 11
Remember to do it on both sides.

x = 19
