Explanation:
To solve, isolate the x-term on the left side of the equation and move numeric terms to the right.
To achieve this subtract 11 from both sides.
#4x+cancel(11)color(red)cancel(-11)=37color(red)"-11"rArr4x=26# now divide both sides by 4
#(cancel(4)^1 x)/cancel(4)^1=cancel(26)^(13)/cancel(4)^2#
#rArrx=13/2#
