Solve 9x + 10 = 46

The solution of 9x + 10 = 46 is x = 4.

The lines y = 9x + 10 and y = 46 meet at x = 4-224681020406080100x = 4y = 9x + 10y = 46
The lines y = 9x + 10 and y = 46 meet at x = 4. 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+10=469x + 10 = 46
  2. 2

    Subtract 10 from both sides:

    9x+10−10=46−10 ⇒ 9x=369x + 10 - 10 = 46 - 10 \ \Rightarrow\ 9x = 36
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 9:

    9x9=369 ⇒ x=4\frac{9x}{9} = \frac{36}{9} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 4
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 4 back into the equation.
