Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 5x + 3 and y = 63 meet at x = 1268101214161830405060708090x = 12y = 5x + 3y = 63
The lines y = 5x + 3 and y = 63 meet at x = 12. 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+3=635x + 3 = 63
  2. 2

    Subtract 3 from both sides:

    5x+3−3=63−3 ⇒ 5x=605x + 3 - 3 = 63 - 3 \ \Rightarrow\ 5x = 60
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 5:

    5x5=605 ⇒ x=12\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{60}{5} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 12
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 12 back into the equation.
