The lines y = 3x + 14 and y = 44 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.

    3x+14=443x + 14 = 44
  2. 2

    Subtract 14 from both sides:

    3x+14−14=44−14 ⇒ 3x=303x + 14 - 14 = 44 - 14 \ \Rightarrow\ 3x = 30
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 3:

    3x3=303 ⇒ x=10\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{30}{3} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 10
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 10 back into the equation.
