Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 11x + 5 and y = 60 meet at x = 524681020406080100120x = 5y = 11x + 5y = 60
The lines y = 11x + 5 and y = 60 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.

    11x+5=6011x + 5 = 60
  2. 2

    Subtract 5 from both sides:

    11x+5−5=60−5 ⇒ 11x=5511x + 5 - 5 = 60 - 5 \ \Rightarrow\ 11x = 55
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 11:

    11x11=5511 ⇒ x=5\frac{11x}{11} = \frac{55}{11} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 5
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 5 back into the equation.
