Answer: the answer to the equation would be x=2

Explanation:

You would use the subtraction property of equality to get ride of the five. Then you would subtract 11 by 5 and get 6. After that you would get the x by itself and divide it by 3. Them you will also divide 6 by 3 And be left with 2.

2 subtract 5 from both sides, cancel out 5 in left. 3x=6 divide 3 from both sides so x=2
