    X=8

    Step-by-step explanation:

    3x+5=5x-11

    -3x = - 3x Subtract the 3x from both sides

    5 = 2x-11 You will end up with 5 on the left and 2x-11 on the right

    +11 = + 11 Add 11 to both sides to get rid of 11 on the right

    16 = 2x you will end up with 16=2x

    16/2=2/2 Lastly divide 2 on both sides

    8=x You will end up with the answer as x=8
