Solve 6x + 10 = 64

The solution of 6x + 10 = 64 is x = 9.

The lines y = 6x + 10 and y = 64 meet at x = 946810121430405060708090100x = 9y = 6x + 10y = 64
The lines y = 6x + 10 and y = 64 meet at x = 9. 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.

    6x+10=646x + 10 = 64
  2. 2

    Subtract 10 from both sides:

    6x+10−10=64−10 ⇒ 6x=546x + 10 - 10 = 64 - 10 \ \Rightarrow\ 6x = 54
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 6:

    6x6=546 ⇒ x=9\frac{6x}{6} = \frac{54}{6} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 9
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 9 back into the equation.
