Question

-9=4+11x+20solve for x.step by step

Answer 1

So first step: simplify like terms. Since you have two like terms on the same side then you just add them together. Your equation now looks like this: -9=11x+24. Then you subtract 24 from both sides to get -33=11x. Divide both sides by 11(the coefficient of x), and you get -3=x. I hope my steps are clear enough and this is helping you. If you really don’t get it you should ask your teacher. It would really help you.

Answer 2

-9 = 4 + 11x + 20

Combine like terms on the right side of the equation.

-9 = 24 + 11x

Subtract 24 from both sides.

-33 = 11x

Divide both sides by 11.

x = -3
