Solve 4x + 6 = 46

The solution of 4x + 6 = 46 is x = 10.

The lines y = 4x + 6 and y = 46 meet at x = 1046810121416203040506070x = 10y = 4x + 6y = 46
The lines y = 4x + 6 and y = 46 meet at x = 10. 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+6=464x + 6 = 46
  2. 2

    Subtract 6 from both sides:

    4x+6−6=46−6 ⇒ 4x=404x + 6 - 6 = 46 - 6 \ \Rightarrow\ 4x = 40
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 4:

    4x4=404 ⇒ x=10\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{40}{4} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 10
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 10 back into the equation.
