Answer:
x=2
Explanation:
*Shown two ways to solve.
11-2x=5x-3
+2x +2x
11=7x-3
+3 +3
14=7x
Divide by 7.
2=x
-11 -11
-2x=5x-14
-5x -5x
-7x=-14
Divide by -7.
Check to see if you're right.
11-2(2)=5(2)-3
11-4=10-3
7=7
Yep, it's correct.
Hope this helps.
the first step, move the 3 over
14-2x=5x
In the second step moves 2x over
finally, we just isolate the x from 7 by dividing 7
14/7=7x/7
simplify
2=x or x=2
