Question 551478
{{{-11-(x+30)=41-2(5x-18)}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{-11-x-30=41-10x+36}}} Distribute.



{{{-x-41=41-10x+36}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{-x-41=-10x+77}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{-x=-10x+77+41}}} Add {{{41}}} to both sides.



{{{-x+10x=77+41}}} Add {{{10x}}} to both sides.



{{{9x=77+41}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{9x=118}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{x=(118)/(9)}}} Divide both sides by {{{9}}} to isolate {{{x}}}.

Answer:


So the solution is {{{x=118/9}}}
