Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 8x + 8 and y = 96 meet at x = 116810121416406080100120140x = 11y = 8x + 8y = 96
The lines y = 8x + 8 and y = 96 meet at x = 11. 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=968x + 8 = 96
  2. 2

    Subtract 8 from both sides:

    8x+8−8=96−8 ⇒ 8x=888x + 8 - 8 = 96 - 8 \ \Rightarrow\ 8x = 88
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 8:

    8x8=888 ⇒ x=11\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{88}{8} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 11
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 11 back into the equation.
