The lines y = 12x + 14 and y = 134 meet at x = 10. 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+14=13412x + 14 = 134
  2. 2

    Subtract 14 from both sides:

    12x+14−14=134−14 ⇒ 12x=12012x + 14 - 14 = 134 - 14 \ \Rightarrow\ 12x = 120
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 12:

    12x12=12012 ⇒ x=10\frac{12x}{12} = \frac{120}{12} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 10
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 10 back into the equation.
