Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 12x + 10 and y = 58 meet at x = 4-2246810-2020406080100120140x = 4y = 12x + 10y = 58
The lines y = 12x + 10 and y = 58 meet at x = 4. 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=5812x + 10 = 58
  2. 2

    Subtract 10 from both sides:

    12x+10−10=58−10 ⇒ 12x=4812x + 10 - 10 = 58 - 10 \ \Rightarrow\ 12x = 48
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 12:

    12x12=4812 ⇒ x=4\frac{12x}{12} = \frac{48}{12} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 4
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 4 back into the equation.
