The solution of 8x + 8 = 32 is x = 3.

Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 8x + 8 and y = 32 meet at x = 3-22468-2020406080x = 3y = 8x + 8y = 32
The lines y = 8x + 8 and y = 32 meet at x = 3. 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+8=328x + 8 = 32
  2. 2

    Subtract 8 from both sides:

    8x+8−8=32−8 ⇒ 8x=248x + 8 - 8 = 32 - 8 \ \Rightarrow\ 8x = 24
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 8:

    8x8=248 ⇒ x=3\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{24}{8} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 3
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 3 back into the equation.
