What is the solution of the equation 11 -4x = -9?

Question

-1/2

-5

5

1/2

Answer 1

To solve the equation \( 11 - 4x = -9 \), follow these steps:

1. Subtract 11 from both sides of the equation: \[ -4x = -9 - 11 \] \[ -4x = -20 \]

2. Divide both sides by -4: \[ x = \frac{-20}{-4} \] \[ x = 5 \]

Thus, the solution to the equation \( 11 - 4x = -9 \) is \( \boxed{5} \).
