The lines y = 11x + 11 and y = 176 meet at x = 15101214161820100120140160180200220240x = 15y = 11x + 11y = 176
The lines y = 11x + 11 and y = 176 meet at x = 15. 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.

    11x+11=17611x + 11 = 176
  2. 2

    Subtract 11 from both sides:

    11x+11−11=176−11 ⇒ 11x=16511x + 11 - 11 = 176 - 11 \ \Rightarrow\ 11x = 165
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 11:

    11x11=16511 ⇒ x=15\frac{11x}{11} = \frac{165}{11} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 15
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 15 back into the equation.
