5=2x−11

1 answer

To solve for x, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation.

Starting with the equation: 5 = 2x - 11

First, let's add 11 to both sides of the equation to get rid of the constant term -11:
5 + 11 = 2x - 11 + 11
16 = 2x

Next, let's divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for x:
16/2 = 2x/2
8 = x

Therefore, the solution to the equation 5 = 2x - 11 is x = 8.
