Solve 12x + 10 = 22

The solution of 12x + 10 = 22 is x = 1.

The lines y = 12x + 10 and y = 22 meet at x = 1-4-2246-60-40-2020406080100x = 1y = 12x + 10y = 22
The lines y = 12x + 10 and y = 22 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.

    12x+10=2212x + 10 = 22
  2. 2

    Subtract 10 from both sides:

    12x+10−10=22−10 ⇒ 12x=1212x + 10 - 10 = 22 - 10 \ \Rightarrow\ 12x = 12
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 12:

    12x12=1212 ⇒ x=1\frac{12x}{12} = \frac{12}{12} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 1
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 1 back into the equation.
