Are those x's?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you solving for "x"?
OpenStudy (triciaal):
do not post a question and leave if you really need help.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes I'm solving for "x"
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
ok, start by subtracting 5x from each side

OpenStudy (jennithemeani):
6x+11=5x-3 Subtract 5x on both sides
x+11=-3 Isolate x by adding 11 on both sides
x=14
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
nope, not quite
6x + 11 = 5x - 3
x + 11 = -3
x = -14
OpenStudy (jennithemeani):
Yep, sorry about that. I tend to forget the negatives
OpenStudy (anonymous):
How do you get -3
OpenStudy (jennithemeani):
From the original question the only difference from my answer and Vocaloid is that one is negative and one is positive, -14 is correct because -3-11=-14

7×-11=4×+19 subtract 4x from each side
3x-11=19 Add 11 to isolate x
3x=30 then divide by 3
x=10
