Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 6x + 6 and y = 60 meet at x = 94681012142030405060708090100x = 9y = 6x + 6y = 60
The lines y = 6x + 6 and y = 60 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+6=606x + 6 = 60
  2. 2

    Subtract 6 from both sides:

    6x+6−6=60−6 ⇒ 6x=546x + 6 - 6 = 60 - 6 \ \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.
