#x~~3.467#

Given: #5.5x-15=-2x+11#

Begin by adding #15# to both sides

#5.5x-15color(red)(+15)=-2x+11color(red)(+15)#

#5.5x+0=-2x+26#

#5.5x=-2x+26#

Add #2x# to both sides:

#5.5xcolor(red)(+2x)=-2xcolor(red)(+2x)+26#

#7.5x=0+26#

#7.5x=26#

Divide both sides by #7.5#

#cancel(7.5)/cancelcolor(red)7.5x=26/color(red)7.5#

#x~~3.467#
