Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 6x + 6 and y = 48 meet at x = 724681012102030405060708090x = 7y = 6x + 6y = 48
The lines y = 6x + 6 and y = 48 meet at x = 7. 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+6=486x + 6 = 48
  2. 2

    Subtract 6 from both sides:

    6x+6−6=48−6 ⇒ 6x=426x + 6 - 6 = 48 - 6 \ \Rightarrow\ 6x = 42
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 6:

    6x6=426 ⇒ x=7\frac{6x}{6} = \frac{42}{6} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 7
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 7 back into the equation.
