Answer:
X=2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute 3(3-2x)
You get 9-6x

Change the = sign to a -
You get 9-6x-2x-11

Move the constant (9) to the right
You get -6x-2x=-11-9

Collect like terms (-6x-2x)
You get -8x=-11-9

Collect like terms (-11-9)
You get -8x=-20

Divid both sides of the equation by -8
You get x=5/2

Answer:

x = 2,5

Step-by-step explanation:


3(3 - 2x) = 2x - 11


9 - 6x = 2x - 11

Put numbers with x's to the left, and the plain numbers to the right:


- 6x - 2x = - 11 - 9


- 8x = - 20


x = 2.5
