The lines y = 10x + 12 and y = 62 meet at x = 524681020406080100120x = 5y = 10x + 12y = 62
The lines y = 10x + 12 and y = 62 meet at x = 5. 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+12=6210x + 12 = 62
  2. 2

    Subtract 12 from both sides:

    10x+12−12=62−12 ⇒ 10x=5010x + 12 - 12 = 62 - 12 \ \Rightarrow\ 10x = 50
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 10:

    10x10=5010 ⇒ x=5\frac{10x}{10} = \frac{50}{10} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 5
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 5 back into the equation.
