Solve 4x + 10 = 82

The solution of 4x + 10 = 82 is x = 18.

The lines y = 4x + 10 and y = 82 meet at x = 181214161820222460708090100110x = 18y = 4x + 10y = 82
The lines y = 4x + 10 and y = 82 meet at x = 18. 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=824x + 10 = 82
  2. 2

    Subtract 10 from both sides:

    4x+10−10=82−10 ⇒ 4x=724x + 10 - 10 = 82 - 10 \ \Rightarrow\ 4x = 72
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 4:

    4x4=724 ⇒ x=18\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{72}{4} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 18
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 18 back into the equation.
