Solve 4x + 6 = 70

The solution of 4x + 6 = 70 is x = 16.

The lines y = 4x + 6 and y = 70 meet at x = 16101214161820225060708090x = 16y = 4x + 6y = 70
The lines y = 4x + 6 and y = 70 meet at x = 16. 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=704x + 6 = 70
  2. 2

    Subtract 6 from both sides:

    4x+6−6=70−6 ⇒ 4x=644x + 6 - 6 = 70 - 6 \ \Rightarrow\ 4x = 64
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 4:

    4x4=644 ⇒ x=16\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{64}{4} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 16
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 16 back into the equation.
