Please explain more clearly, but here is what I interpret it as.

 

10^x times 10^-9 = 10^11

 

So, how are we going to do this?

 

If you know exponents well, if you multiply exponents, say, 10^5 times 10^6, the answer is 10^11. How to get that? The base (10) is the same, so we are allowed to add the exponent powers for the answer. Thus, using the same logic, what plus -9 is 11? We have x = 20 with this.

 

Hope this helps.
