Solve 12x + 11 = 11

The solution of 12x + 11 = 11 is x = 0.

The lines y = 12x + 11 and y = 11 meet at x = 0-6-4-2246-60-40-2020406080x = 0y = 12x + 11y = 11
The lines y = 12x + 11 and y = 11 meet at x = 0. 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+11=1112x + 11 = 11
  2. 2

    Subtract 11 from both sides:

    12x+11−11=11−11 ⇒ 12x=012x + 11 - 11 = 11 - 11 \ \Rightarrow\ 12x = 0
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 12:

    12x12=012 ⇒ x=0\frac{12x}{12} = \frac{0}{12} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 0
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 0 back into the equation.
