this site is having loading issues today.

as is, i think you should be capable enough to solve the setup I provided. Im not sure that I really need to try to teach you how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide.

Answer 7

2x-3=x+4

if you want to step me thru this, I will let you know if you are doing it correctly or not tho

2x-3=x+4
-x+3 -x+3

x = 7

okay so I crossed out all of them but 11+5 which equals 16. but 16 is not in my answer choice. the closest is 15 lol
