Hello there! Your answer is 2.
When we are given this problem: x + 3 = 8x - 11 we are solving for the value of X. We want to isolate all like terms on one side of the equation. To do this, let's add 11 to the left side so the - 11 cancels out on the right.
x + 3 + 11 = 8x - 11 + 11 - After this, add like terms. (so 3 + 11 and - 11 + 11)
x + 14 = 8x - Now, negative 11 plus positive 11 have canceled each other out, we have to subtract x from the left side.
x - x + 14 = 8x - x
14 = 7x - Our last step is do divide both sides of the equation by 7 to finish isolating x.
14/7 = 7/7x
2 = x.
This is your final answer!

x + 3 = 8x - 11
Add 11 to both sides:
x + 14 = 8x
Subtract 1x from each side:
14 = 7x
Divide both sides by 7:
x = 14 / 7
x = 2
