Solve 6x + 4 = 58

The solution of 6x + 4 = 58 is x = 9.

The lines y = 6x + 4 and y = 58 meet at x = 94681012142030405060708090100x = 9y = 6x + 4y = 58
The lines y = 6x + 4 and y = 58 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+4=586x + 4 = 58
  2. 2

    Subtract 4 from both sides:

    6x+4−4=58−4 ⇒ 6x=546x + 4 - 4 = 58 - 4 \ \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.
