To find the value of x, let's solve the equation step by step:
1. Start with the equation: 5 = 2x - 11
2. Add 11 to both sides of the equation to isolate the term with x: 5 + 11 = 2x - 11 + 11
3. Simplify: 16 = 2x
4. Divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for x: 16/2 = 2x/2
5. Simplify: 8 = x
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 8.
