The solution of 3x + 6 = 63 is x = 19.

The lines y = 3x + 6 and y = 63 meet at x = 191416182022244550556065707580x = 19y = 3x + 6y = 63
The lines y = 3x + 6 and y = 63 meet at x = 19. 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+6=633x + 6 = 63
  2. 2

    Subtract 6 from both sides:

    3x+6−6=63−6 ⇒ 3x=573x + 6 - 6 = 63 - 6 \ \Rightarrow\ 3x = 57
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 3:

    3x3=573 ⇒ x=19\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{57}{3} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 19
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 19 back into the equation.
