The answer to the equation is [tex]x=-2[/tex]

First, you must use distributive property to simplify the equation.

[tex]6x-3+2x=4x-11[/tex]

Then, you must combine like terms.

[tex](6x+2x)-3=4x-11[/tex]

[tex]8x-3=4x=11[/tex]

Next, you must subtract 4x on each side

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

Then, add 3 on both sides

[tex]4x=-8[/tex]

Finally, divide both sides by 4

[tex]\frac{4x}{4} =\frac{-8}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=-2[/tex]
