Question

Solve for x: 3x − 5 = 2x + 6. (1 point) Group of answer choices 1 −1 11 −11

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 5 = 2x + 6

Add 5 to each side:

3x = 2x + 11

subtract 2x from each side:

x = 11

Substitute to check:

3x - 5 = 2x + 6

3 ( 11 ) - 5 = 2 ( 11 ) + 6

33 - 5 = 22 + 6

28 = 28
