Question

3x-5=7x+11
what are the sol sets
Can anyone walk me through this?

Answer 1

anyone there???

Answer 2

\[3x-5=7x+11\] you want all the \(x\)'s on one side of the equal sign, the numbers on the other
subtract \(3x\) from both sides to get
\[-5=4x+11\]as a first step

Answer 3

thats what I did

Answer 4

now the \(x\) is on the right, subtract \(11\) from both sides to put the number on the left
get
\[-16=4x\]

Answer 5

finally divide both sides by \(4\)

Answer 6

yeah but its asking for solution sets as meaning setting to 0 and obtaining two different answers hence sets

Answer 7

like a quadratic

Answer 8

any way how to setup?
