2x + -11 = k

Reorder the terms:
-11 + 2x = k

Solving
-11 + 2x = k

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '11' to each side of the equation.
-11 + 11 + 2x = 11 + k

Combine like terms: -11 + 11 = 0
0 + 2x = 11 + k
2x = 11 + k

Divide each side by '2'.
x = 5.5 + 0.5k
