Solve 9x + 1 = 91

The solution of 9x + 1 = 91 is x = 10.

The lines y = 9x + 1 and y = 91 meet at x = 1046810121416406080100120140x = 10y = 9x + 1y = 91
The lines y = 9x + 1 and y = 91 meet at x = 10. 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.

    9x+1=919x + 1 = 91
  2. 2

    Subtract 1 from both sides:

    9x+1−1=91−1 ⇒ 9x=909x + 1 - 1 = 91 - 1 \ \Rightarrow\ 9x = 90
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 9:

    9x9=909 ⇒ x=10\frac{9x}{9} = \frac{90}{9} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 10
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 10 back into the equation.
