Answer:
x = 32/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Write equation
7(x + 4) = 5(2x - 3) + 11
Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>
<u>Distribute:</u> 7x + 28 = 10x - 15 + 11
<u>Combine like terms:</u> 7x + 28 = 10x - 4
<u>Subtract 7x on both sides:</u> 28 = 3x - 4
<u>Add 4 to both sides:</u> 32 = 3x
<u>Divide both sides by 3:</u> x = 32/3
