Answer:

-45

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3x - 11 = x + 4

  • I created an inequality representing the above statement first. This makes things look less complicated than what the question is asking.

2/3x = x + 15

  • solve for x. I started by adding 11 to both sides.

-1/3x = 15

  • multiply both sides by -3

x = -45
