Answer:
[tex]3x - 5 = 7x + 11 \\ 7x - 3x = - 11 - 5 \\ 4x = - 16 \\x = - \frac{16}{4} \\ \color{yellow} \boxed{x =-4}[/tex]
x= -4
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-5=7x+11
3x-5+5=7x+11+5
3x=7x+11+5
3x=7x+16
3x-7x=7x+16-7x
-4=7x+16-7x
-4x=16
divided each side by -4
x= 16 over -4
divide them and you get -4.
