Answer:

33

Explanation:

x/11-5= -2

Make x the subject and carry over the -5 to the -2.

x/11= -2+5

x/11= 3

Carry over the 11 to the 3 and make x the subject.

x= 3*11

x= 33

To see of the answer is correct, replace the x with the value it is in brackets. The value of x is 33.

(33)/11-5= - 2

3-5= - 2

Therefore x is 33 and its correct
