Question 677188
{{{3x-5=11+2(x-6)}}} Start with the given equation.



{{{3x-5=11+2x-12}}} Distribute.



{{{3x-5=2x-1}}} Combine like terms on the right side.



{{{3x=2x-1+5}}} Add {{{5}}} to both sides.



{{{3x-2x=-1+5}}} Subtract {{{2x}}} from both sides.



{{{x=-1+5}}} Combine like terms on the left side.



{{{x=4}}} Combine like terms on the right side.
