Question

Find the value of X and check your result:
X - 11/x-5 = -5​

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x - 11}{x - 5} = - 5 \\ x - 11 = - 5(x - 5) \\ x - 11 = - 5x + 25 \\ x + 5x = 25 + 11 \\ 6x = 36 \\ x = \frac{36}{6} \\ x = 6$

verification

$substitute \: x \: = 6 \\ \frac{6 - 11}{6 - 5} \\ = \frac{ - 5}{1} \\ = - 5 \\ rhs \: = lhs$

Hope you get your answer
