Answer:

Yes, x=2, there can be no other number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Putting these two terms equal, we get 2x = x + 2. Subtracting x from both sides, we are left with x = 2. Since this equation says x is equal to two, there can be no other values of x. It cannot be a positive number, and if it was negative, it would never work, since multiplying a negative by two makes it smaller, and adding by 2 makes it bigger.

2x - x = 2

x = 2

2 × 2 = 2 + 2
