Step-by-step explanation:
Hi,
(2x + 3) - (5x - 7)/
6x +11 = -8/3
By cross multiplication method , we get
3 { ( 2x + 3 ) - ( 5x - 7 ) } = -8 ( 6x + 11 )
3(2x + 3) - 3(5x - 7)= -8 ( 6x+11)
6x + 9 - 15x + 21 = -48x - 88
-15x + 6x + 21 + 9= -48x -88
-9x + 30 = -48x - 88
-9x + 48x = -88 - 30
39x = -118
x = 3.02
