Question

what is the value of x in the equation 11+7x=-17

Answer 1

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 11+7x=-17$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 7x=-7-11$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 7x=-28$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x=\dfrac{-28}{7}$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x=-4$

Answer 2

Answer: x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation

11 + 7x = -17

Subtract 11 on both sides

11 + 7x - 11 = -17 - 11

7x = -28

Divide 7 on both sides

7x / 7 = -28 / 7

$\boxed{x=-4}$
