Solve 7x + 4 = 67

The solution of 7x + 4 = 67 is x = 9.

The lines y = 7x + 4 and y = 67 meet at x = 946810121420406080100x = 9y = 7x + 4y = 67
The lines y = 7x + 4 and y = 67 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.

    7x+4=677x + 4 = 67
  2. 2

    Subtract 4 from both sides:

    7x+4−4=67−4 ⇒ 7x=637x + 4 - 4 = 67 - 4 \ \Rightarrow\ 7x = 63
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 7:

    7x7=637 ⇒ x=9\frac{7x}{7} = \frac{63}{7} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 9
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 9 back into the equation.
