Answers & Explanations:

5x-1=2(x-11)

5x-1=2x-22

3x-1=-22

3x=-21

x=-21/3

x=-7

[tex]\frac{x+4}{2}[/tex]-[tex]\frac{x-1}{3}[/tex]=1

[tex]\frac{3x+12}{6}[/tex]-[tex]\frac{2x-2}{6}[/tex]=1

[tex]\frac{3x+12-(2x-2)}{6}[/tex]=1

[tex]\frac{3x+12-2x+2}{6}[/tex]=1

[tex]\frac{x+14}{6}[/tex]=1

x+14=6

x=6-14

x=-8
