The lines y = 5x + 15 and y = 110 meet at x = 191416182022248090100110120130140x = 19y = 5x + 15y = 110
The lines y = 5x + 15 and y = 110 meet at x = 19. 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+15=1105x + 15 = 110
  2. 2

    Subtract 15 from both sides:

    5x+15−15=110−15 ⇒ 5x=955x + 15 - 15 = 110 - 15 \ \Rightarrow\ 5x = 95
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 5:

    5x5=955 ⇒ x=19\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{95}{5} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 19
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 19 back into the equation.
