Solve 4x + 10 = 22

The solution of 4x + 10 = 22 is x = 3.

The lines y = 4x + 10 and y = 22 meet at x = 3-224681020304050x = 3y = 4x + 10y = 22
The lines y = 4x + 10 and y = 22 meet at x = 3. 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.

    4x+10=224x + 10 = 22
  2. 2

    Subtract 10 from both sides:

    4x+10−10=22−10 ⇒ 4x=124x + 10 - 10 = 22 - 10 \ \Rightarrow\ 4x = 12
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 4:

    4x4=124 ⇒ x=3\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{12}{4} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 3
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 3 back into the equation.
