The lines y = 3x + 13 and y = 25 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.

    3x+13=253x + 13 = 25
  2. 2

    Subtract 13 from both sides:

    3x+13−13=25−13 ⇒ 3x=123x + 13 - 13 = 25 - 13 \ \Rightarrow\ 3x = 12
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 3:

    3x3=123 ⇒ x=4\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{12}{3} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 4
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 4 back into the equation.
