The lines y = 5x + 15 and y = 90 meet at x = 15. 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=905x + 15 = 90
  2. 2

    Subtract 15 from both sides:

    5x+15−15=90−15 ⇒ 5x=755x + 15 - 15 = 90 - 15 \ \Rightarrow\ 5x = 75
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 5:

    5x5=755 ⇒ x=15\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{75}{5} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 15
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 15 back into the equation.
