Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

= 7 ( square both sides )

11x + 5 = 7² = 49 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

11x = 44 ( divide both sides by 11 )

x = 4

substitute x = 4 into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side , then it is the solution.

=  =  = 7 ← equals right side

then x = 4 is the solution

Make sure when you simplify the equation do it to both sides and the answer is
X = 4
