Solve 7x + 10 = 3

The solution of 7x + 10 = 3 is x = -1.

Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 7x + 10 and y = 3 meet at x = -1-6-4-224-40-202040x = -1y = 7x + 10y = 3
The lines y = 7x + 10 and y = 3 meet at x = -1. 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.

    7x+10=37x + 10 = 3
  2. 2

    Subtract 10 from both sides:

    7x+10−10=3−10 ⇒ 7x=−77x + 10 - 10 = 3 - 10 \ \Rightarrow\ 7x = -7
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 7:

    7x7=−77 ⇒ x=−1\frac{7x}{7} = \frac{-7}{7} \ \Rightarrow\ x = -1
  4. 4

    Check: put x = -1 back into the equation.

    7⋅(−1)+10=−7+10=3✓7\cdot(-1) + 10 = -7 + 10 = 3 \checkmark
