1) both 8x and -6x are the same form - they’re just a coefficient with a variable, while 9 and -7 are just plain numbers. move the expression around as shown in the picture: 8x - 6x + 9 - 7. now coefficients with variables are next to each other, while plain numbers are next to each other, making it easier to solve.
2) now solve: 8x - 6x is 2x, and 9 - 7 is 2. now you have 2x + 2, which is the final answer.

i don’t know if i explained it very well, but if you look at the picture you should be fine.

5+ 2a/-3= 5/11<br> solve for A please

xxTIMURxx [149]

Let's solve it step-by-step.

5+ 2a/-3= 5/11

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

5+ 2a/-3= 5/11

-2/3a+5=5/11

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides.

-2/3a+5-5=5/11-5

-2/3a=-50/11

Step 3: Multiply both sides by 3/(-2).

a=75/11

So, the answer is a=75/11.
