The lines y = 8x + 15 and y = 135 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.

    8x+15=1358x + 15 = 135
  2. 2

    Subtract 15 from both sides:

    8x+15−15=135−15 ⇒ 8x=1208x + 15 - 15 = 135 - 15 \ \Rightarrow\ 8x = 120
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 8:

    8x8=1208 ⇒ x=15\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{120}{8} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 15
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 15 back into the equation.
