Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 10x + 6 and y = 16 meet at x = 1-4-2246-40-2020406080x = 1y = 10x + 6y = 16
The lines y = 10x + 6 and y = 16 meet at x = 1. 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+6=1610x + 6 = 16
  2. 2

    Subtract 6 from both sides:

    10x+6−6=16−6 ⇒ 10x=1010x + 6 - 6 = 16 - 6 \ \Rightarrow\ 10x = 10
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 10:

    10x10=1010 ⇒ x=1\frac{10x}{10} = \frac{10}{10} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 1
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 1 back into the equation.
