Q:

How many solutions does 15x+11=8x

Accepted Solution

A:
Hello there!

How many solutions does 15x + 11 = 8x


Answer: 1 solution
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation:


To solve this, we must isolate the x.

15x + 11 = 8x

We will subtract 15x from each side to isolate the x.

15x + 11 = 8x
- 15x         -15x

11 = -7x

Finally, we must simplify this by dividing each side by -7

11 = -7x
---    ----
-7     -7


Our answer is: -11/7 = x

Ths means that this equation only has one solution.
