Solve 4x + 15 = 19

The solution of 4x + 15 = 19 is x = 1.

The lines y = 4x + 15 and y = 19 meet at x = 1-4-224610203040x = 1y = 4x + 15y = 19
The lines y = 4x + 15 and y = 19 meet at x = 1. 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+15=194x + 15 = 19
  2. 2

    Subtract 15 from both sides:

    4x+15−15=19−15 ⇒ 4x=44x + 15 - 15 = 19 - 15 \ \Rightarrow\ 4x = 4
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 4:

    4x4=44 ⇒ x=1\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{4}{4} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 1
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 1 back into the equation.
