Solve 11x + 8 = 19

The solution of 11x + 8 = 19 is x = 1.

The lines y = 11x + 8 and y = 19 meet at x = 1-4-2246-60-40-2020406080x = 1y = 11x + 8y = 19
The lines y = 11x + 8 and y = 19 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.

    11x+8=1911x + 8 = 19
  2. 2

    Subtract 8 from both sides:

    11x+8−8=19−8 ⇒ 11x=1111x + 8 - 8 = 19 - 8 \ \Rightarrow\ 11x = 11
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 11:

    11x11=1111 ⇒ x=1\frac{11x}{11} = \frac{11}{11} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 1
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 1 back into the equation.
