The lines y = 9x + 12 and y = 111 meet at x = 1168101214166080100120140160x = 11y = 9x + 12y = 111
The lines y = 9x + 12 and y = 111 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.

    9x+12=1119x + 12 = 111
  2. 2

    Subtract 12 from both sides:

    9x+12−12=111−12 ⇒ 9x=999x + 12 - 12 = 111 - 12 \ \Rightarrow\ 9x = 99
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 9:

    9x9=999 ⇒ x=11\frac{9x}{9} = \frac{99}{9} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 11
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 11 back into the equation.
