The lines y = 2x + 11 and y = 35 meet at x = 126810121416182530354045x = 12y = 2x + 11y = 35
The lines y = 2x + 11 and y = 35 meet at x = 12. 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.

    2x+11=352x + 11 = 35
  2. 2

    Subtract 11 from both sides:

    2x+11−11=35−11 ⇒ 2x=242x + 11 - 11 = 35 - 11 \ \Rightarrow\ 2x = 24
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 2:

    2x2=242 ⇒ x=12\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{24}{2} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 12
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 12 back into the equation.
