To solve the equation, let's distribute and combine like terms:
First, distribute the 1/2 to (4x - 10):
1/2(4x - 10) + 5 = x - 11
2x - 5 + 5 = x - 11
Next, combine like terms on the left side:
2x = x - 11
To isolate x, subtract x from both sides:
2x - x = x - 11 - x
x = -11
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = -11.
Solve the following equation: one-half(4x – 10) + 5 = x – 11
