Answer:

2x = 1.6 as decimal

2x = 6/5 as fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so just write it as an equation.

5x + 8 = 11 (minus 8 on both sides)

5x = 3 (divide by 5)

x = .6 or 3/5

NOW if you want to find what 2x equals. We already know what x equal so just multiply x by 2.

x = .6 (multiply by 2 on each side)

2x = 1.2 or

2x = 6/5
