Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 9x + 2 and y = 83 meet at x = 946810121420406080100120140x = 9y = 9x + 2y = 83
The lines y = 9x + 2 and y = 83 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+2=839x + 2 = 83
  2. 2

    Subtract 2 from both sides:

    9x+2−2=83−2 ⇒ 9x=819x + 2 - 2 = 83 - 2 \ \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.

    9⋅9+2=81+2=83✓9\cdot9 + 2 = 81 + 2 = 83 \checkmark
