Answer:

[tex]x=-6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We begin with this

[tex]x+11-5x=12-(3x-5)[/tex]

First we can distribute the negative

[tex]x+11-5x=12-3x+5[/tex]

Now we can combine like terms on each side of the equals

[tex]11-4x=17-3x[/tex]

Now we can add 4x to each side and subtract 17 from each side

[tex]x=-6[/tex]
