Solve 8x + 10 = 106

The solution of 8x + 10 = 106 is x = 12.

The lines y = 8x + 10 and y = 106 meet at x = 126810121416186080100120140160x = 12y = 8x + 10y = 106
The lines y = 8x + 10 and y = 106 meet at x = 12. 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.

    8x+10=1068x + 10 = 106
  2. 2

    Subtract 10 from both sides:

    8x+10−10=106−10 ⇒ 8x=968x + 10 - 10 = 106 - 10 \ \Rightarrow\ 8x = 96
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 8:

    8x8=968 ⇒ x=12\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{96}{8} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 12
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 12 back into the equation.
