D. x = -8

9 answers

To solve for x, you can start by isolating the x term on one side of the equation. To do this, add 11 to both sides of the equation:
5 + 11 = 2x - 11 + 11
16 = 2x
Next, divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for x:
16/2 = 2x/2
8 = x
Therefore, the solution is x = 8. The correct option is A.
Solve for x
11/4x + 9 = 31
A. x = 8
B. x = 110
C. x = 22
D. x = -8
To solve for x, you can start by subtracting 9 from both sides of the equation:
11/4x = 31 - 9
11/4x = 22
Next, multiply both sides of the equation by 4/11 to solve for x:
(4/11)(11/4x) = (4/11)(22)
x = 8
Therefore, the solution is x = 8. The correct option is A.
Solve for x
3/7x - 4 = -1
A. x = -7
B. x = 3
C. x = 7
D. x = -3
To solve for x, you can start by adding 4 to both sides of the equation:
3/7x - 4 + 4 = -1 + 4
3/7x = 3
Next, multiply both sides of the equation by 7/3 to solve for x:
(7/3)(3/7x) = (7/3)(3)
x = 7
Therefore, the solution is x = 7. The correct option is C.
Solve for x
3 - 6/5x = -3
A. x = 0
B. x = 6
C. x = -5
D. x = 5
To solve for x, you can start by adding 6/5x to both sides of the equation:
3 + 6/5x = -3 + 6/5x
Next, subtract 6/5x from both sides of the equation:
3 + 6/5x - 6/5x = -3
3 = -3
Since this equation is not true for any value of x, there is no solution to the equation. Therefore, the correct option is "No Solution".

Apologies for the mistake. The equation 3 - (6/5)x = -3 can be solved.

To solve for x, start by adding 3 to both sides of the equation:
3 - (6/5)x + 3 = -3 + 3
6/5x = 0

Next, multiply both sides of the equation by 5/6 to solve for x:
(5/6)(6/5x) = (5/6)(0)
x = 0

Therefore, the solution is x = 0. The correct option is A.
