Answer 1

2*3-2*11=2(x-11)
X will equal 3

Answer 2

The value of x is 3.

Explanation:

Given : 2 • 3 – 2 • 11 = 2(x – 11)

To find = x

Solution :

2 • 3 – 2 • 11 = 2(x – 11)

• = This symbol means multiplication

`2* 3 - 2* 11 = 2(x - 11)`

Step 1: Opening the bracket

`6-22=2x-22`

Step 2: taking like terms on one side

`6-22+22=2x`

`6=2x`

Step 3:

`(6)/(2)=x` x = 3

The value of x is 3.
