3x+5=11x
Calculate \sqrt[3]{27} and get 3.
3x+5-11x=0
Subtract 11x from both sides.
-8x+5=0
Combine 3x and -11x to get -8x.
-8x=-5
Subtract 5 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x=\frac{-5}{-8}
Divide both sides by -8.
x=\frac{5}{8}
Fraction \frac{-5}{-8} can be simplified to \frac{5}{8} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
