x^{2}-4x+9-x^{2}=5x-11
Subtract x^{2} from both sides.
-4x+9=5x-11
Combine x^{2} and -x^{2} to get 0.
-4x+9-5x=-11
Subtract 5x from both sides.
-9x+9=-11
Combine -4x and -5x to get -9x.
-9x=-11-9
Subtract 9 from both sides.
-9x=-20
Subtract 9 from -11 to get -20.
x=\frac{-20}{-9}
Divide both sides by -9.
x=\frac{20}{9}
Fraction \frac{-20}{-9} can be simplified to \frac{20}{9} by removing the negative sign from both the numerator and the denominator.
