Solve 10x + 10 = 90

The solution of 10x + 10 = 90 is x = 8.

The lines y = 10x + 10 and y = 90 meet at x = 8246810121420406080100120140160x = 8y = 10x + 10y = 90
The lines y = 10x + 10 and y = 90 meet at x = 8. The solution of the equation is the x-coordinate of the point where the two sides are equal.

How to work it out

  1. 1

    The goal is to get x alone. Undo the operations in the opposite order: first the addition, then the multiplication.

    10x+10=9010x + 10 = 90
  2. 2

    Subtract 10 from both sides:

    10x+10−10=90−10 ⇒ 10x=8010x + 10 - 10 = 90 - 10 \ \Rightarrow\ 10x = 80
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 10:

    10x10=8010 ⇒ x=8\frac{10x}{10} = \frac{80}{10} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 8
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 8 back into the equation.
