Question

solve the equation 3 X + 5 equals to 5 x minus 11

Answer 1

Hey mate!!☺
Here's your answer ^_^

3x + 5 = 5x - 11
3x - 5x = -11 - 5
-2x = -16
x = 8

Verification :)
LHS => 3x + 5
3*8 + 5 = 24+5 = 29

RHS => 5x - 11
5*8 - 11 = 40 -11 = 29

Hence, LHS = RHS

Hope this helps!!❤

Answer 2

3x+5=5x-11
3x-5x=-11-5
-2x=-16
x=-16÷(-2)
x=8
