Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 3x + 7 and y = 19 meet at x = 4-2246810510152025303540x = 4y = 3x + 7y = 19
The lines y = 3x + 7 and y = 19 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+7=193x + 7 = 19
  2. 2

    Subtract 7 from both sides:

    3x+7−7=19−7 ⇒ 3x=123x + 7 - 7 = 19 - 7 \ \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.
