To solve for ( x ) in the equation (-11x – 10 = -6x – 55), follow these steps:
1. Combine like terms: Start by getting all the terms involving ( x ) on one side and the constant terms on the other. Add ( 11x ) to both sides:
[
-10 = 5x – 55
]
2. Isolate the term with ( x ): Add ( 55 ) to both sides:
[
45 = 5x
]
3. Solve for ( x ): Divide both sides by ( 5 ):
[
x = 9
]
So the solution is ( x = 9 ). If you have any further questions or need more assistance, feel free to ask!
