Explain it step by step in chatMake a short video of it
The lines y = 9x + 5 and y = 59 meet at x = 62468101220406080100120x = 6y = 9x + 5y = 59
The lines y = 9x + 5 and y = 59 meet at x = 6. 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+5=599x + 5 = 59
  2. 2

    Subtract 5 from both sides:

    9x+5−5=59−5 ⇒ 9x=549x + 5 - 5 = 59 - 5 \ \Rightarrow\ 9x = 54
  3. 3

    Divide both sides by 9:

    9x9=549 ⇒ x=6\frac{9x}{9} = \frac{54}{9} \ \Rightarrow\ x = 6
  4. 4

    Check: put x = 6 back into the equation.
