Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 2 = 8

get rid of 2 to get x by itself on the left side

5x - 2 + 2 = 8 + 2 (whatever u do to one side do to the other)

5x = 10

divide to get 1x (divide both sides by 5)

x = 10

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

5×2=10-2=8

You subtract add two to both sides, giving you 5x=10

Divide the 10 by 5 and you get 2.
