Answer:

x = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute 2 to all terms within the parenthesis:

2(x + 11) =

2 * x = 2x

2 * 11 = 22

2x + 22 = -26

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operations, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplications

Divisions

Additions

Subtractions

First, subtract 22 from both sides of the equation:

2x + 22 (-22) = -26 (-22)

2x = -26 - 22

2x = -48

Next, divide 2 from both sides of the equation:

(2x)/2 = (-48)/2

x = -48/2

x = -24

x = -24 is your answer.
