=> 11x - 5x = 10 + 58 - 2

=> 6x = 66

=> x = 66/6

=> x = 11

We are asked to solve the equation $\large\pmb{11x+2=5x+10+58}$.

$\triangle~\fbox{\bf{KEY:}}$

• The goal is to get x all by itself.

So here's how we solve the equation...

///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\///\\\

Notice that we can add 10 and 58 right off the bat:

$\large\pmb{11x+2=5x+68}$

Now we subtract 2 from both sides of the equal sign:

$\large\pmb{11x=5x+66}$

Now we subtract 5x from both sides of the equal sign:

$\large\pmb{6x=66}$

Divide both sides by 6:

$\large\pmb{11}$

That's the value of x.

Hope it helps you out! :D
