I need help wit mi algebra homework 11x=8x-6?

Question

u need to show me how u got tha answer to get tha 10 points

Answer 1

11x = 8x - 6

11x - 8x = -6

3x = -6

x = -6/3

x = -2

Answer 2

11X=8x-6

subtract 8x from each side

3x = -6

divide over the 3

x = -2

Answer 3

11x = 8x - 6

11x - 8x = 8x- 8x - 6

3x = - 6

3x/3 = -6/3

x = -2

you must get the 8x on the left side with the other x so subtract 8x from both sides. then you must get the 3 on the other side to get x by itself, by dividing x = -2

Answer 4

11x = 8x - 6.

=> 11x - 8x = - 6.

=> 3x = - 6.

=> x = -2

OR

11x = 8x - 6.

=> Subtract 11x on both sides.

=>11x - 11x= 8x - 6 - 11x.

=> 0 = - 3x - 6.

=> 3x = -6.

x = -2.

You can follow any of these methods as they give the same answer.... Hope that helped.

Answer 5

Hi,

this is an algebraic equation where u can find variable (like x) and constants(number like 6).So here u go step wise.

step1:put all the variables into left hand side of the equals to symbol(=) and the number into right hand side.

point to be noted that when you change the position of a variable or constant from one side of "=" to other side their respective signs change(that means "+" becomes " - " and "- " becomes "+")

hence,11x - 8x = - 6

step2:now the subtraction of the same type variable is similar to the subtraction of numbers.

so,  3x = - 6

step 3:as in algebraic equation our motto is to find the value of "x" so here lets put "x" at one side by taking 3 to the other side.But 3 is multiplied with "x" so it will be divided by 6 once we take it to the right hand side ,as mentioned in step 1.

so x = - 6/3

       = -2

one more thing,there is a concept in algebra:

( - ) * ( - ) = (+)

( - ) / ( - ) = (+)

( - ) * ( + ) = ( - )

( - ) / ( + ) = ( - )

So applying the above concept on the step 3,

(-6) / 3 = (-2)

hence the answer is ( -2 )

Answer 6

1) Subtract 8x from both sides.

11x - 8x = 8x - 6 - 8x

3x = -6

2) Divide both sides by 3.

3x/3 = -6/3

x = -2

Answer 7

11x=8x-6

{-8x} cancel the excess xess

3x= -6

{/3} reduce

x= -6/3 = -2
