(12+3x)-(7-6x)=5x-11 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
Given the linear equation:
(12+3*x)-(7-6*x) = 5*x-11
Expand brackets in the left part
12+3*x-7+6*x = 5*x-11
Looking for similar summands in the left part:
5 + 9*x = 5*x-11
Move free summands (without x)
from left part to right part, we given:
$$9 x = 5 x - 16$$
Move the summands with the unknown x
from the right part to the left part:
$$4 x = -16$$
Divide both parts of the equation by 4
x = -16 / (4)
We get the answer: x = -4
