11x + 6 = 83

1 answer

To solve the equation \(11x + 6 = 83\), follow these steps:

  1. Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation:

    \[ 11x + 6 - 6 = 83 - 6 \]

    This simplifies to:

    \[ 11x = 77 \]

  2. Next, divide both sides by 11:

    \[ x = \frac{77}{11} \]

    Simplifying this gives:

    \[ x = 7 \]

So, the solution is \(x = 7\).
