Solve 9x + 14 = 95

The solution of 9x + 14 = 95 is x = 9.

The lines y = 9x + 14 and y = 95 meet at x = 9468101214406080100120140160x = 9y = 9x + 14y = 95
The lines y = 9x + 14 and y = 95 meet at x = 9. 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+14=959x + 14 = 95
  2. 2

    Subtract 14 from both sides:

    9x+14−14=95−14 ⇒ 9x=819x + 14 - 14 = 95 - 14 \ \Rightarrow\ 9x = 81
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 9:

    9x9=819 ⇒ x=9\frac{9x}{9} = \frac{81}{9} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 9
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 9 back into the equation.
