Answer:
x = -24
Step-by-step explanation:
First, distribute 2 to all terms within the parenthesis:
2(x + 11) =
2 * x = 2x
2 * 11 = 22
2x + 22 = -26
Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operations, and stands for:
Parenthesis
Exponents (& Roots)
Multiplications
Divisions
Additions
Subtractions
~
First, subtract 22 from both sides of the equation:
2x + 22 (-22) = -26 (-22)
2x = -26 - 22
2x = -48
Next, divide 2 from both sides of the equation:
(2x)/2 = (-48)/2
x = -48/2
x = -24
x = -24 is your answer.

Hey I'm in flvs too but I have a different teacher, what class and module is your DBA for?
I hope I am reading the problem right: The price of a mountain bike increased by 20% in the past year. The value is $150. What was the value of the mountain bike last year?
Let's simplify this. One year, there was this radical mountain bike that used to have an unsaid price, <em>x. </em>That year, that price of x increased by 20% more than it was before, or <em>120% times the original value</em>. Because of that, it's now $150.
We can equation this.
1.20x = 150
x = 150/1.2
x = 125
The bike, I believe, cost $125 last year. Hope this helps!
