v=12

Explanation:

Solve -7=v/3-11.

-7+11=v/3

Simplify.

4=v/3

Multiply both sides by 3.

12=v

Switch sides.

v=12

color(white)a+11=color(white)(aa)+11color(white)(aaa)Add 11 to both sides

color(white)(aaa^1a)4=v/3

color(white)(a^1a)3*4=v/3 *3color(white)(aaa)Multiply both sides by 3

color(white)(a^1a)3*4=v/cancel3 *cancel3

color(white)(aa^1aa)12=v
