Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 8x + 6 and y = 22 meet at x = 2-4-22468-2020406080x = 2y = 8x + 6y = 22
The lines y = 8x + 6 and y = 22 meet at x = 2. 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+6=228x + 6 = 22
  2. 2

    Subtract 6 from both sides:

    8x+6−6=22−6 ⇒ 8x=168x + 6 - 6 = 22 - 6 \ \Rightarrow\ 8x = 16
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 8:

    8x8=168 ⇒ x=2\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{16}{8} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 2
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 2 back into the equation.

    8⋅2+6=16+6=22✓8\cdot2 + 6 = 16 + 6 = 22 \checkmark
