The correct answer for the problem above is -23 .

Explanation

1. collect the like terms

2x + x - 11 + 3 - 7x = 15
2x , x , & -7x are like terms
-11 & 3 are like terms

2x + x -7x = -4x
-11 + 3 = -8

2. Move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign .

-4x = 15 + 8
-4x = 23

3. Make the signs on both sides of the equation

-4x = 23 turning into 4x = -23

answer =

4x = -23
