Question

3x + 2 =11 (solve for x)

Answer 1

x=3

Explanation:

first let's try to get just 3x on one side. to do this we can subtract 2 from both side of the equation.

3x+(2-2)=11-2

3x=9

now we have to isolate the variable we can divide both sides by 3:

3x/3=9/3

x=3

and you get the answer that x is 3
