The lines y = 3x + 7 and y = 67 meet at x = 20. 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=673x + 7 = 67
  2. 2

    Subtract 7 from both sides:

    3x+7−7=67−7 ⇒ 3x=603x + 7 - 7 = 67 - 7 \ \Rightarrow\ 3x = 60
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 3:

    3x3=603 ⇒ x=20\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{60}{3} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 20
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 20 back into the equation.
