Answer: x=
I don't understand the process.
Let's try it my old fashioned way.

11x + 28 = 6x + 43

Subtract 6x from both sides of the equation.

11x - 6x + 28 = 6x - 6x + 43
5x + 28 = 43

Subtract 28 from both sides of the equation.
5x + 28 - 28 = 43 - 28
5x = 15

Divide both sides by 5.
x = 15/5
x = ?
