    11 - (x+5) = 8x - 3

    opening up the brackets,

    11-x - 5 = 8x - 3

    6-x = 8x-3

    bringing the x over to the other side of the equation,

    6 = 8x - 3 + x

    6 = 9x-3

    bringing the - 3 to the other side of the equation,

    6+3 = 9x

    9x = 9

    x=1

    Step-by-step explanation:

    11-x-5=8x-3

    6-x=8x-3

    Combining similar terms

    6+3=8x+x

    9=9x

    Dividing both sides by 9

    1=x

    OR

    x=1
