Solve 5x + 13 = 63

The solution of 5x + 13 = 63 is x = 10.

The lines y = 5x + 13 and y = 63 meet at x = 104681012141630405060708090x = 10y = 5x + 13y = 63
The lines y = 5x + 13 and y = 63 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.

    5x+13=635x + 13 = 63
  2. 2

    Subtract 13 from both sides:

    5x+13−13=63−13 ⇒ 5x=505x + 13 - 13 = 63 - 13 \ \Rightarrow\ 5x = 50
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 5:

    5x5=505 ⇒ x=10\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{50}{5} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 10
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 10 back into the equation.
