Answer:


$$x = 6$$

Happy to help with this triangle problem and similar ones -- these are my specialty. Let's find the value of x in the equation:


$$2x-1=11$$

We can solve the equation by adding/subtracting and dividing both sides by the same factor.

Steps to solve:

1. Add/subtract to both sides:


$$2x-1{+1} = 11{+1}$$

2. Simplify:


$$2x = 12$$

3. Divide both sides by the same factor:


$$\frac{2x}{{2}} = \frac{12}{{2}}$$

4. Simplify:


$$x = 6$$
