11%2B6x=2x-13 Start with the given equation.


6x=2x-13-11 Subtract 11 from both sides.


6x-2x=-13-11 Subtract 2x from both sides.


4x=-13-11 Combine like terms on the left side.


4x=-24 Combine like terms on the right side.


x=%28-24%29%2F%284%29 Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x.


x=-6 Reduce.
