Question

Solve 6(x - 3) = 11x +7

Answer 1

`\large\bf{\red{ \bullet}} \: \tt \:\: 6(x - 3) \: = \: 11x + 7`

`\large\bf{\red{ \bullet}} \: \tt \:\:6x \: - \: 18 \: = \: 11x \: + \: 7`

`\large\bf{\red{ \bullet}} \: \tt \:\: - 7 \: \: - 18 \: = \: 11x \: - \: 6x`

`\large\bf{\red{ \bullet}} \: \tt \: \: - 25 \: = \: 5x`

`\large\bf{\red{ \bullet}} \: \tt \: \cancel(-25)/(5) \: = \: x`

`\large\bf{\red{ \bullet}} \: \tt \: - 5 \: = \: x`

`\large\bf{\red{ \bullet}} \: \tt \: \: x \: = \: - 5`

Answer 2

x = -5

Explanation:

Given,

6(x-3) = 11x + 7

=> 6x - 18 = 11x + 7

=> 11x - 6x = -18 - 7

=> 5x = -25

`= > x = ( - 25)/(5)`

=> x = -5 (Ans)
