Question

14+5x= 3(-x+3)-11 Find x

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

$14+5x=3\left(-x+3\right)-11$

$3\left(-x+3\right)-11$  ← ( Expand)

$14+5x=-3x-2$

$14+5x-14=-3x-2-14$ ← ( Subtract 14 from both sides)

$5x=-3x-16$

$5x+3x=-3x-16+3x$

$8x=-16$

$\cfrac{8x}{8}=\cfrac{-16}{8}$  ← ( Divide both sides by 8)

$x=-2$
