The lines y = 10x + 15 and y = 95 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+15=9510x + 15 = 95
  2. 2

    Subtract 15 from both sides:

    10x+15−15=95−15 ⇒ 10x=8010x + 15 - 15 = 95 - 15 \ \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.
