The lines y = 7x + 8 and y = 113 meet at x = 15. 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+8=1137x + 8 = 113
  2. 2

    Subtract 8 from both sides:

    7x+8−8=113−8 ⇒ 7x=1057x + 8 - 8 = 113 - 8 \ \Rightarrow\ 7x = 105
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 7:

    7x7=1057 ⇒ x=15\frac{7x}{7} = \frac{105}{7} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 15
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 15 back into the equation.
