Answer

$x=-5$

Work Step by Step

Step 1: $9x+11=7x+1$ Step 2: Subtracting $11$ from both sides, $9x+11-11=7x+1-11$ Step 3: $9x=7x-10$ Step 4: Subtracting $7x$ from both sides, $9x-7x=7x-10-7x$ Step 5: $2x=-10$ Step 6: Dividing each side by $2$, $\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{-10}{2}$ Step 7: As a result, $x=-5$
